The 'New Silver' Exhibit by David Zink Yi is a series of metal palm trees. The trees boast impeccable detailing and are specified to the species 'Washingtonia Robusta,' which are common in California.
Actual palm trees of this species reach 35m in height, making leaves of these trees inaccessible to humans. What David Zink Yi hopes to accomplish through this exhibit is the actual experience of Washingtonia Robusta, which he achieves with a cool urban twist.
