Chinese sculptor Xie Ai Ge's Infinity Tree portrays a man climbing a tree to catch a bird, evoking an imaginary scene of rustic country living. The bird is a sign of freedom and the distance between the climber and the bird symbolises the gap between man's worldliness and his enlightenment. The climber's reaching-out gesture reflects out intrinsic yearning to be freed of our earthly binds to find spiritual liberty.
