Description{{Quote box|title = Inscriptions |width = 35% |align = right |quote = It’s trees I look for nowadays, year after year adding their rings. Recording this month’s frost, that season’s burning, the arrival and departure of leaves, birds, mice, barefoot invaders, and appplecore wars in the kingdom of twigs. …the tree is dreaming our lives. Its dust-thick shadow reaches the road… Trees were their thoughts: peppermint gum black-sally, white tea-tree hung over creeks… There is there was a country that spoke in the language of leaves. There are five different Scribbly Gums, like five brothers in mythology, each bearing a significant name: sclerophylla, signata, rossii, racemosa and see the red rim of its fruit – haemastoma. New trees step out of old: lemon and ochre splitting out of grey everywhere, in the gum forest. In there for miles, shade track and ironbark slope Sky sifting, and always a hint of smoke in the light; you can never reach the heart of the gum forest. }} The panels are made of glass edged with Corten-steel containing LED lighting. Some panels enclose historically native seeds, ash, honey and resin, while others have verses from poetry written by Australian writers and poets. The play of light on the translucent glass create a passage of reflection, and memory.[2] The work aims to highlight the native natural environment and indigenous history, as well as the importance of historical preservation through botanical conservatories. The red gums refer to the forest of original gums axed as a result of early European settlement with hopes to rejuvenate the site with its native trees and grass plants.[3] Artist collaborationThe collaboration was between two artists Janet Laurence and Jisuk Han. Janet Laurence is a Sydney based artist whose work examines the interconnection of life forms and ecologies. Jisuk Han has worked in interpretive design, art and architecture for more than twenty years and collaborates with artists, architects, curators and museums throughout Australia.[2] See also
