Film screening: The Art of Trees

The Art of Trees offers a thoughtful encounter between nature, science, and artistic creation. Through the lens of filmmaker André Desrochers, the film gives voice to trees to help shed light on the challenges surrounding forest conservation and their essential role in our lives. 


Combining artistic expression with environmental awareness, the documentary highlights the richness and vulnerability of forest ecosystems while showcasing positive initiatives taking place in the field. It also features six artists from the Suroît region, who transform wood from fallen trees into original works, giving new life to the material.
