Trees are often regarded as objects and are removed according to the landscape plan ruthlessly. In the Netherlands trees typically reach only one tenth of the age that they could make.
For Raw Color and studio Maarten Kolk & Guus Kusters trees are anything but static. They ever changing life forms that determine how we experience light, shade, wind and changes of the seasons.
This photo series presents the life, dynamics and transformation of trees. When the wind blows, when the sun shines, the trees respond to nature in various ways. This project was created for MU, Make a Forest by Mkgk and Raw Color.
