Untitled is an assemblage of twigs and leaves. They are constructed into a branch with red tape and red thread. By the action of wrapping the twigs and stitching the leaves, it signifies the healing or reviving of the object, reversing time for the branch to be noticed once more. The color red draws the viewer's attention, a symbolic representation of life between nature and humans. The artists’ hair is also incorporated to attach leaves back to the twigs and also form the shape of the branch, to connect the similarity between hair falling from humans and leaves falling from trees.
