Urban life of trees / 2023
I often pass them carelessly, those trees — living beings that mean more to us than we realize. Maybe it's time to look and listen to them more consciously. What have they experienced, seen and heard?
In the middle of the city, trees are a refuge where I relax and connect with others. Their value in my urban environment is inestimable. Amid the city chaos, green spaces offer peace, an escape from the hustle and bustle and solace in the silence of nature.
Parks, gardens, and urban forests interrupt my fast-paced urban lifestyle. Seeing swaying trees, listening to birdsong, and the smell of flowers have a soothing effect, allowing me to recharge.
Nature in the city functions as a shared base, where people come together and find connection. Parks are meeting places where conversations arise, children play, and families picnic. Nature promotes community, breaks down barriers and encourages social interaction.
