It Will Continue to Grow Except at That Point

“What if you held a tree long enough for it to grow around your hand?” For a piece called It Will Continue to Grow Except at That Point, Giuseppe Penone fitted a cast of his hand to a growing tree and the tree grew around it for more than a decade.
Penone has been featured on KDO once before — for his sculptures of trees where he carves away tens or even hundreds of years from massive trees to reveal their inner saplings.

That's really creepy. Like sadism toward trees.
