3D Printed Table Lamp (2021)

 

I always loved the miniature bonsai trees that my grandfather would make. He would spend hours forming them from twisted copper wire in his reclining chair while he and my grandmother watched television.

​

He stopped making them for a long time, but when my grandmother passed away he began making them again. It is one of the many ways that he keeps his mind busy. He told me once what the bonsai trees meant to him.

"You sit by it and think about your ancestors - your loved ones, and just remember them."
