Spirit Trees
Details
Spirit Trees is a group exhibition that celebrates the many ways trees support life on this planet and their longstanding witness to human history. Trees are sacred to Indigenous communities and also are fundamental to connecting all humans with nature. They are a connector with the land and they bring communities together. The exhibition features three contemporary artists with diverse backgrounds whose work uses primarily natural materials and directly addresses our connection to nature. Their work fosters deep reflections around the role of nature and art in sustaining life.
In addition to the multimedia artworks, the exhibition includes a participatory activity and photographs of local trees taken by Guimaraes and community members since 2019 in an attempt to preserve trees that might soon be cut down in the pursuit of progress and development.
