How to slip into the skin of a tree?
Between the bark and the trunk and even in the intimacy of its roots to discover in symbiosis another way of being and inhabiting the world… in tree.
Publicity
Let us question ourselves on a completely different way of being and inhabiting the world: to slip into the skin of a tree ... Between the bark and the trunk, in the depth of its roots and even in the privacy of its leaves, discover what wood our trees are made of!
How do these motionless giants live?
How do they feed, exchange, reproduce?
What is the secret of their vegetal eternity?
How to unravel a little the mystery of these other living beings, so majestic, so sensitive and perpetually capable of adapting to the world around them?
