haptic/tacit - Fieldwork: Hybridisation 2022 (10)

Created on: Tuesday, February 21, 2023
hAptic/tacit Fieldwork at Groundwork Gallery Kings Lynn, Norfolk.

For Fieldwork, Kim’s installation has derived from observing the relationship humans have with plant life, particularly with trees, and how human intervention impacts nature’s balance.

‘Humans are restless, curious, empirical experimenters with nature. From the first use of a sharp tool to split a log or peel bark, communities have explored and exploited trees over the best part of a million years’ - Max Adams

Humans have a symbiotic relationship with trees to such an extent our understanding and knowledge is so deeply meshed between reality and mythology that the symbolism of trees is quite literally rooted within our history, religions, folklore and culture.

The project began with one apple tree that was cut down in 2018.
