Artist Duy Anh Nhan Duc honours those who defy the limits of eternity before our very eyes: trees.
Monumental sculptures in wood, prints in bark, canvases made from leaf, fruit and seed pigments, frescoes in forest soil... these are just some of the explorations into the heart of matter that Duy Anh Nhan Duc is experimenting with at Espace Richaud.
The artist is questioning our links and interdependence with trees. The peaks of the asphalt evoke both the sacred place that trees occupied in the cosmogony of the first peoples, and those that they occupy today in our modern societies.
The exhibition pays tribute to these giants of space and time, and shows the vital place they occupy, because if we are to make a successful ecological and climatic transition, it will only be with the help of trees and forests.
