Tangencya 2 - Umlazi
Conservation Conversation - The
Garden of Life Project - Having completed Tangencya 1 in
2005, whereby I worked with six Zulu wood carvers on a
cooperative sculpture, whose aim was to promote indigenous
African tree appreciation and link the material (wood) back to
the living tree, I was then invited back this year to continue
the conservation theme. Andrew St. Ledger.

Tangencya 1 - Thinta - Between
2004 and 2005, Andrew St. Ledger of the Woodland League visited
South Africa. While there, Andrew engaged in the Tangencya
project, which included artists from all across Southern African
countries. His brief was to engage an existing group of fringe
African carvers with the view to setting up a conceptual
conversation where mutual experiences and skills could be
transferred.
