TREE OF LIFE with Maria Ezcurra
This collaborative and inclusive workshop invites participants to contribute to a large-scale Tree of Life installation using recycled and found materials. Starting with a cardboard tree trunk mounted on the wall, each person creates elements—leaves, flowers, birds, or insects—that reflect personal stories, dreams, or identities. Rooted in eco-consciousness, creativity, and community building, the project encourages reflection on our connection to each other and the natural world. It is easily adaptable for schools, community centres, and diverse intergenerational settings.
