Driven by my interest in communication, especially among human and non-human systems, last summer I started to personally explore the connection that lies at the basis of our relationship with the natural world in a sort of meditative performance that progressed through the warm season. By putting myself in a condition of pure-listening, I wanted to experience a level of exchange and communication that went beyond language, which often operates as a limit, an obstacle set by our minds. The video acts as a documentary piece aimed at the description of the relationships which occurred among me and each one of the presented trees. Since the aim of my performance was to experience a reconnection and establish a line of communication with the natural realm beyond language, I decided to avoid any kind of written description and to present the new-discovered connectedness through this sort of visual documentary.
