Sometimes the day begins with nothing to look forward to… An anonymous child awakes to find blackened leaves falling from her bedroom ceiling, threatening to quietly overwhe.lm her She wanders down a street overshadowed by a huge lifeless fish that floats above her, imagines herself trapped in a bottle washed up on a forgotten shore, lost in a strange landscape, caught between towering ships about to collide or being on stage before an audience, not knowing what she’s supposed to do. Just as it seems all hope is lost, the girl returns to her bedroom to find a tiny red seedling growing in the middle of the, floor which, once noticed, becomes a vivid red tree that fills the room with warm light.
