"Her research popularised the idea of the #woodWideWeb, but the scientific backlash was brutal. As the author of The Mother Tree returns to the #forest in a new book, she discusses her battle to reimagine our relationship with #nature."

The old days
Over the last few days, I’ve been rummaging through my digital photo albums and found a few old works from the times when I used to stroll through the Westphalian forests together with Jan Philip Scheibe and we just made art for the sake of art. For this one we mounted a photo wallpaper ("Paradise") onto panels and staged it in the forest. There were more spruce trees back then.

Dark Forest Maze — A dark forest with trees so dense that sunlight cannot break through the canopy above.
Giant mushrooms thrive here, and are as tall as some of the trees.
Bioluminescent plants emit a hazy glow, the only light that exists here.
