I found Mark Dion's piece to be extremely interesting. I loved how he wanted to make a living piece of artwork, but I found it sad that he had to disrupt a natural setting in order to get his living piece. Watching the whole process of using a crane to lift the tree from it's natural setting was a bit disturbing, especially after seeing that there was a birds nest in the fallen tree. Overall though, the idea behind the piece is fascinating. Hopefully, even though he has disturbed a natural process, his piece will help educate and fascinate people who may not normally get a chance to experience the beauty and wonder of nature.
