Second part of a collaborative project by Antti Laitinen completed in Sweden

One Tree Four Seasons: Season II, the second part of a collaborative work between artist Antti Laitinen and architect/artist Ulf Mejergren, is now finished.

In Nykvarn, Sweden, Laitinen and Mejergren will create four different artworks from one tree, one for each season, with available material found in nature. For the second part of the project, which started in August this year, the artists collected hay from the surrounding field to create a floor and seating inside the structure as well as inner walls while the tree crown became the roof. A concert performed by the local string quartet Julikvartetten was held inside the structure as a homage to the tree.

A photographic documentation of Season I, the first part of the project, was seen at Galerie Anhava in June 2022 as part of the group exhibition Openings.
