Juror - Jae McDonald in selecting her piece stated:

"I love the starkness of Tree In Half by Helga Schulte-Schroeer. The softness of the medium contrasts with the stone-like appearance of the surface. It brings to mind petroglyphs or petrified wood, ghosts of the distant past imagining what once was. Like swimmers and fish painted on a desert cliff evoke memories of a long-gone lake or ocean, this tree warns us of soon to be lost forests and towering giants embedded in memory and concrete only."
