These are shown in different elements of the sculpture, the circular layout, circles being a symbol of strength and life, the alignment of the centrepiece north to south and the faces to represent the spirits of these wise old oaks.

I wanted to create a tribute to the trees giving the trees a new purpose and life, providing seats amongst the circle where viewers can sit, look and think.
