Stephanie Ford
For what is it to die but to stand naked in the wind and melt into the sun? And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance.
Penny's tree 2002

The quotations are from Gibran's The Prophet. The tree is decorated with plastic jewellery and key-rings, many with "Stephanie" or "Penny".
