The Tree of Care
This installation honors the supporters of the Bragg Creek Medical Center, symbolizing the essential connection between community, medicine, and knowledge.
At the heart of the artwork stands a tree, representing the strength and unity of the community that has nurtured and supported the center. Each branch reflects the contributions of individuals and organizations, growing together to form a resilient whole.
Perched gracefully on one of the branches is an owl, a timeless symbol of wisdom, healing, and vigilance. The owl embodies the role of medicine and knowledge, quietly observing and caring for the community it serves. Its position on the tree signifies the deep reliance of healthcare on the support of a connected and compassionate society.
Crafted from materials that echo the natural beauty of Bragg Creek—such as wood, metal, and glass—the installation blends artistry with symbolism.
The Tree of Care invites visitors to reflect on the symbiotic relationship between a thriving community and the healing power of medicine, celebrating the collective effort that brings life to the Bragg Creek Medical Center.
