"Landscape with Olive Tree (Offset Painting Patterns)" is a visual description of a landscape painting. It was inspired by the captivating shapes of ancient olive tree trunks that highlight their enduring qualities and deep relationship with the land where they grow. It also draws inspiration from depictions of olive trees in painting, contemplating how the features and meanings of the tree can be conveyed through digital representations and what new perspectives these interpretations can offer to influence our perception of the tree. The piece focuses on a 3D scan of an 800-year-old olive tree trunk from the Greek island of Zakynthos.—Claudia Brăileanu
