| Abstract: | The article focuses on artist Clare Hewitt's project involving oak leaf prints created over five years at the Birmingham Institute of Forest Research in the UK. Inspired by the concept of connection and resource sharing in nature, Hewitt engaged with the trees, producing prints by placing fallen leaves on expired photo paper and exposing them to sunlight, while returning the leaves to the forest. This work is part of her exhibition titled "Everything in the Forest is the Forest," displayed at the Impressions Gallery in Bradford, UK, until August 23. The exhibition also features a biodegradable book made from mushroom-based paper and plant-based inks, highlighting the interplay of art and nature. [Extracted from the article] |
