Tree Totems

Award-winning Canadian photographer, Linda Joyce Ott celebrates the sacred spirit of trees in this photo art portfolio.

Trees have been venerated and mythologized in all cultures throughout the ages. Their ubiquitous nature, and our hurried lifestyle, mean that we often pass them by, quite unconsciously.

This portfolio of 46 images of tree trunks draws attention to the uniqueness of individual trees, elevating them to totemic status. By highlighting fragments of a greater whole, Linda’s work depicts different ways of seeing, sanctifying the ordinary by expanding it into a new dimension – the realm of the extraordinary.
