Tree of Life

Tree of Life

A minimalist portfolio that pulls from the book, inviting visitors to sample excerpts and linger on ideas worth exploring.

A stylized “tree of life” grows out of an open book placed on a matte concrete slab, its trunk and branches formed entirely from delicately folded, cream-colored pages that curl and twist upward. No leaves, just intricate paper branches casting complex, lace-like shadows on the slab. The backdrop is a smooth, deep charcoal gradient, fading to near black at the edges. A single, intense spotlight from the left creates dramatic highlights on the paper edges and a crisp, branching shadow behind. Shot in photographic realism from a low-angle perspective, the composition emphasizes verticality and strength, creating a bold, almost sculptural atmosphere that suggests stories growing into entire worlds.

An open book lies flat on a seamless matte white surface, its cream pages fanned in a perfect arc, revealing a single, sharply printed excerpt highlighted by a thin, glossy black underline. The rest of the text fades toward the gutter in gentle blur. A hard beam of cool daylight cuts across from the right, creating razor-edged shadows between the pages and a diagonal line of contrast that divides light and dark. The background is an infinite white void, clean and uncluttered. Captured from a slightly elevated angle, the composition uses strong negative space around the book, evoking a bold, high-impact, photographic minimalist aesthetic that draws attention to the power of the words.
