40 Fruit Tree 2018

This painting of The 40 Fruit Tree symbolizes unity in diversity — how many different lives, cultures, and identities can grow from one shared foundation. It represents abundance, transformation, and the beauty of coexistence, reminding us that true strength and richness come not from sameness, but from nurturing harmony among differences. It also speaks to legacy — how one root can give rise to countless branches, each bearing its own unique fruit yet tied to the same origin. In this way, the tree becomes a metaphor for humanity, showing that our individuality is what makes the collective whole more vibrant and alive.
