I was asked to create the “The tree of insight” while I was experiencing the fact that when we are deeply rooted in mother Earth, we are feeling our roots as human beings strongly embedded in the earth. Only then we can grow in higher dimensions - in the world of the spirit(s). Deeply rooted and connected to our higher self, we are able to receive inner sight - in-sights - for our ‘right’ decisions guiding our life. We are - as human beings - the connections between earth and heaven, and for that the symbol of the tree is the most appropriate in my vision. The vision about this creation came to me in a night I spent in the forest. The spirits guiding me through the creation-process are now having the effect on the canvas visible and experienceable for everyone.
