In Arbre Sans Titre, François Houtin envisions a fantastical tree that fuses the architectural and the organic. Rising from a manicured square of foliage, the sculptural trunk supports a crown of symmetrically radiating branches and clouds of leaves that resemble celestial forms. Houtin’s etching transforms the natural world into a structure of pure imagination—part garden design, part mythic emblem.
