The Bodhi Tree (latin: Ficus religiosa) is a sacred fig tree in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. It is said to be the tree under which Gautama Buddha attained enlightenment.
The Bodhi Tree has a very long lifespan, ranging between 900 and 1,500 years. Some have been known to live for longer, such as the Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi: a tree in the ancient city of Anuradhapura in Sri Lanka, which is estimated to be more than 2,250 years old.
The Bodhi Tree symbolizes wisdom, compassion, and awareness.
I work with copper wire of various gauges to create nature-inspired jewellery and sculpture. I love the tactile feel of working with the metal, and the warmth of the copper as my hands work with it.
It starts on the drawing board. I sketch out ideas, keeping my pencil on the page to mimic a length of wire. I aim to create smooth movement from end to end. I coax the copper into its shape, using my hands to keep the lines smooth and pliers for more precision or hard angles. I use my steel block and hammer to tap some texture and harden the metal to strengthen it and help it hold its shape.
