The Tree of Life--Etz Chaim
The artist has used DNA models as leaves of the Tree of Life. The ribbon that envelopes the tree is made up of all of the portions or Sidroth of the Bible from Genesis through the end of Deuteronomy. Some commentators maintain that the Tree of Life and the Tree of Knowledge are the same. To live is to know and to know is to live.
