What do you see when you look at a forest – is it wood or is it life? Wood is supposedly a sustainable material, but sustainable for whom and is it only a material for consumption?

 

Life on earth is dependent on thriving ecosystems and forests harbor many of them. Living beings never exist on their own but become together, humans are not exceptional.

 

With this project we want to emphasize the vital agency of forests and criticize the normative view on forestry, especially in Sweden. Therefore, we would like to invite you to join us for a walk to become with the forest.
