The ecological consequences of large-scale monocultures are becoming increasingly evident in European forests. Drought weakens trees and reduces their capacity for self-repair, allowing bark beetle populations to expand rapidly and transform entire landscapes. The collective artistic research project explores decaying and (re-)emerging habitats within forest ecosystems. It takes shape as a continuously evolving installation of large-format posters on a billboard in public space.
