Dancing Trees tells the story of a well-integrated couple, a man and woman settled in a dancing pose in the trunk of the front tree. Nature is an expression of embrace, union, and love, while trees and Humans are among the characters of this physically woven story. Despite their visible stillness, the trees inspire dance choreography.

There’s a soul in every tree and a story waiting to be discovered.” Maria’s time is suspended when she connects with the trees. She eventually draws the narratives of emotions, attitudes, and anatomy of human bodies revealed within trunks of trees. Each unique piece is based on an actual tree observed by Maria. Every drawing becomes a dialogue between two worlds. The first is the inner human world with its thoughts and emotions. The second is the outer world, whether the human body, Nature, or the outer projections of the human mind onto it. Each story either blurs or clears the boundaries between them.

Production year: 2020.
Drawing with black ink pen on drawing pad, acid free, unframed.

About Maria Azar

That moment of creation, when you can’t foresee what you are bringing to life, is
terrifying yet exhilarating! Maria constantly pushes through that moment to create figurative, abstract, and intuitive art. She is inspired by Nature, the unconscious mind, and psychoanalysis, which is her main practice. She captures intuitively the human form and its features, which she discerns within real-life trees, and lets the elusive-to-the-mind unfold freely in pure abstraction. She draws with inks and acrylics on paper, canvas, and wood.
