Overview

A 15-meter-long fantastic art picture book in a folding screen style.

Book Intro

This 15-meter-long folding book is a strange and unfamiliar picture book. 

The illustrations in this book begin at the very top of a single tree. A tree that once had green leaves that showed off its beauty. Now the leaves are gone, the trunk is gone, and only the base remains. But the life of this tree does not end there: it flows on, giving birth to new life, growing, blossoming, uniting with it, becoming one with it, and finally blossoming again into a new world. 

In the world where we can see it, it's just a tree with no trunk and looks like it will eventually dry up and die, but in the world where we can't see it, it's much more vibrant. The artist depicts this scene as if under a microscope, giving life to the tiny creatures. The painting is an abstraction that seems to be unrecognizable, but if you look closely enough, you can see the myriad of lives blooming up close and personal. Just as the universe as we know it is only a small part of a larger universe, so is the tree as we know it. Perhaps the artist wanted to let us know that there is a universe within the tree, and that worlds are interconnected.

About the Author

Bae Yoojung



The only thing that the author, Bae Yoojung, has never bored of since her childhood is drawing. 

Bae feels happy when she finds colorful paints and pencils. She likes words such as inner-scapes, universe, and circulation. After reflecting on those words for a long time, Bae made this, her first picture book, Tree, Dancing
