The artist Josephine Halvorson’s exhibit, “Visionary New England,” is being viewed at the de Cordova Museum. She sets her pieces in nature where she can provoke questions of life and the cycle or mortality. In this piece she reflects on the fallen birch tree which discusses the points on what would come next, what would their afterlife look like? These questions are stimulated by the audience which would not have otherwise without her exhibit; Halvorson educates the audience to perceive the life cycles of other organism which in turn influences thoughts of our own life cycle.
