The sculptor has created hidden worlds out of [wooden boards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arc-lamp). The exhibit is called 'Linear' and it is anything but. With delicate folds of wood the artist has created 'The Story of The Earth' which includes [miniature forests](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/waterhouseoyama) hidden in the crevices of the wood. The wood was originally boards, but Amy Joy Watson has compressed them into these [little sculpture worlds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/out-of-the-blue-exhibition), fit with everything a real world has in it.
