The less woods are controlled by humans, the more lively and alive it feels. All that seems irrational and chaotic from the first glimpse: the decaying fallen trees, the decomposing branches, the density of bushes; all that takes on a very important role and constitute a medium for animals, mushrooms and plants to thrive. I believe that it is vitally important to have such uncontrolled areas in Lithuania and in ourselves. 2020
Trees need friends too. As us, they grow better together while sharing nutrients, spreading information and aid each other via underground communication. It is so relatable - having a close network of bodies around promotes good health, long life and feeling of fulfillment.
