Exhibition trail
This work in progress will explore ideas for exhibition, sound, podcast, walking trails, activities and more, currently split into six parts:
Tree poem assemblies
...in spaces...
These assemblies of poem extracts use pyrography on wood with recycled offcuts and scrap iron, which juxtaposition prompts focus on the 'imaginative spaces' that inevitably occur between these different materials.
gallery
(...likely nineteen total)
Poem signs
venue clues
Small boards that might be suitable within the landscape, perhaps as part of a trail or in the proximity of their relevant tree
(variable to specific conditions... nineteen or more)
Letter trees
hints and features
Tying elements of the tree to elements within the poem, these boards use the letter as pointer, something that also hints at their calendrical relationship.
(...likely nineteen total)
Image trees
connecting
These images on wooden boards start the context to their relevant tree
(...likely nineteen total)
Botanical threads
connecting plant lore
Whether words are added on boards or slates, these combinations with their images on wooden boards are designed to open up something of the botanical lore of the respective trees.
(...possibly between thirty and eighty if needs be!)
Lore threads
memories in trees..
Similar to the botanical logic above, these story and lore combinations may open the door to the vast hinterland of countless myths and history associated with their respective trees.
(...possibly between thirty and eighty if needs be!)
