Description
Alder – Hand-braided Wire Tree Sculpture, 170 x 160 x 10 cm
Alder is an exceptional wall-mounted tree sculpture meticulously hand-braided from hundreds of meters of wire. Measuring an impressive 170 x 160 x 10 cm, this piece by Hungarian artist Zsuzsanna Györgyövics embodies the strength, balance, and harmony of nature. Crafted entirely by hand, without the use of machines or welding, the sculpture represents a fusion of technical mastery and emotional depth. The twisting, curling wire forms delicate branches and strong roots, creating a captivating visual rhythm that draws the viewer into a contemplative experience.
What makes Alder unique is not only its scale but the sculptor's ability to capture the organic flow of a real tree through metal. The roots seem to pulse downward, while the canopy expands with quiet power and grace. Hints of natural wire tones accentuate the trunk and roots, adding visual warmth and texture. The depth of the piece (10 cm) allows for dynamic shadows to be cast on the wall, giving it a living, dimensional presence that changes with the light.
The condition of the piece is excellent. Alder was created in the artist's studio using a time-intensive manual process that honors traditional craftsmanship while expressing contemporary artistic vision. It has been kept indoors in a clean environment, free of dust, moisture, or damage.
Its powerful yet serene presence makes it ideal for every spaces. Alder is not just a sculpture; it is a visual poem forged in wire.
Presentation
Born in Budapest in 1969 and raised in a small village surrounded by forests and biodiversity, Zsuzsanna developed an intimate relationship with the natural world from an early age. Trees, ever-present in her childhood, became the core of her artistic practice: “a source of life," as she describes — offering protection, sustenance, emotion, and transformation.
Now based in Hungary, she sculpts trees from wire, using a meticulous and unmistakable technique. What began as small pieces evolved into large-scale works that can reach up to 2.5 meters in width and contain over 850 meters of hand-twisted iron wire. Each piece is built with almost meditative precision, where time and gesture are inseparable from the final form.
“The tree is the purest metaphor for existence: it changes, it dies, it is reborn. Just like us."
Through her three-dimensional and wall-mounted compositions, Zsuzsanna explores the cycle of seasons, the rhythms of nature, and their parallels with the human experience. Her sculptures evoke not only the physical presence of trees, but also their silent soul — roots that stretch into memory, trunks that hold stories, branches that reach toward the future.
