Story Behind the Art:

• When you purchase this Handmade Painted Rooted Tree of Life Circle Recycled Steel Wall Art, you are supporting the artists of Croix des Bouquets, the area of town known for Haitian metal art in the capital of Port-Au-Prince. Each piece of artwork is made entirely by hand, from cutting holes that become edges of trees and leaves, to accenting each gecko with a texture of scales, to painting or lacquering the final design. The artists are proud of their work, often signing the pieces on the back side, leaving a raised, reversed signature on the front.
