"and all the lives we ever lived
and all the lives to be
are full of trees and changing leaves
― Virginia Woolf

Carlie Trosclair: all the lives we ever lived, a solo exhibition at the Museum of Art - DeLand, expands notions of home beyond the built environment into a symbiosis with the broader living landscape. Latex membranes of vines and tree trunks record traces of regenerative cycles. Remnants of the original environment are absorbed into each latex body, crystallizing the textures and detritus of place. From the palimpsest of paint, disintegration of wood, or echo of tree rings, these surfaces are connected in the ways they mark time. all the lives we ever lived explores themes of memory, loss, and renewal through a collective witnessing of architectural and environmental histories. Fusing connections across multiple timelines into a unified, shared footprint that extends the present moment beyond the reach of our individual lives.
