Tree Concert

With an unusual concept, this installation for Friends of the Earth Germany (BUND) set out to raise public awareness of the fact that Berlin loses thousands of city trees every year. Falling chestnuts generate a symphony of lights and sounds and turn the tree into a street musician. Crackling sound and breathing light react relative to the wind. The impact of a chestnut alerts with a spotlight and chord. Tree Concert gained massive media coverage and led to a new donation record for the preservation of trees.
