Treeptych Series,

Fine liner, and graphite 

2023, ongoing

​​​

Hasoon's Treeptych Series features triptychs of meticulously hand-drawn trees, utilising fine liners and graphite to capture the intricate patterns found on tree bark. Through this exploration, Hasoon examines the life, growth, and ecological significance of trees, conveying these aspects through the details in her drawings.

​

This body of work is an expression of Hasoon's passion for line and mark-making. Throughout the creative process, she becomes completely immersed, demonstrating an almost turbulent, obsessive dedication. However, this dedication is far from negative; rather, it reflects Hasoon's recognition that, in both art and nature, the true essence often lies in the intricacies and details.

​

In the evolution of the Treeptych Series, Hasoon's affinity for the rule of thirds and odd numbers plays a pivotal role. The title 'Treeptych' is a fusion of the words 'tree' and "triptych', symbolising the connection between compositional rules and thematic elements that explore the interplay between structure and natural forms in both language and art.

​

Each drawing in the series reflects the complex meanderings and lines inherent in the natural mosaics of tree bark, forging a profound connection with the human experience and the ever-changing nature of life.
