Tree Grows Inside [Quarantine] 1, 2, 3 Digital stills from hour long performance video.
catherinelyu.com | We build walls out of trees and claim ownership of their land. When we are gone, they creep in and reclaim their space.” This is a series of stills of an installation and performance I did in a vacant dorm house. The house is filled with branches that were collected from the surrounding forest. They connect the outside to the inside through open windows. I slept naked in a room with walls but also an open window and a bridge of branches that acts as an invite for the forest to reclaim its space.
