Portmanteau

A portmanteau is formed through the combination of two or more words that relate to a singular concept. This piece is about combining different characteristics of the Baobab, Mopani and the Musasa trees into one big tree that is a sin- gular concept. I am the tree. The various characteristics of trees I am made out of represent the knowledge I gain from attending talks, exhibitions, conversations, workshops etc. As far as my dream is concerned, I am the portmanteau.
