Opening Reception of Trees/Plant/People/Time: An immersive multimedia installation about people's relationship with trees.
Trees/Plant/People/Time explores the intimate relationships between people and trees through personal stories of tree planting. Combining documentary audio, video, painting, sound design, and environmental installation, the work invites visitors to rest and listen. The installation celebrates trees as part of our stories, and us as part of theirs – through life cycles and seasons.
Suggested donation is $5 to support our community space at the Climate Imaginarium, but no one will be turned away due to lack of funds.
