Money Tree (for Parkett 31)
A sepia-toned photograph by David Hammons depicting a tree whose branches appear adorned with currency, blending the natural world with the charged symbolism of wealth and commerce. The work reflects Hammons' signature use of found objects and everyday cultural references to explore themes of race, poverty, and the American economic experience. Created for *Parkett 31*, the piece carries an ironic, poetic quality that invites viewers to reconsider the relationship between nature, money, and survival.
