A collaborative project bringing together trees, humans, mental wellness and stories.

Choose one of four stories told with sound intended to accompany you as you walk along mapped routes at The Arboretum at the University of Guelph. You will need your cellphone and headphones (and maybe bug spray, sunscreen, and water.)

Audio tours and the virtual exhibition can be accessed anytime at www.howtodrawatree.ca.

Organisateur

Dawn Matheson

I am an interdisciplinary artist with a socially-engaged practice specializing in video and sound art. I have directed participatory media-based projects for over 20 years with works featured at festivals, galleries and in national media outlets… plus in forests, train stations, fountains and alleyways throughout Canada. Through inclusive artistic practices, I hope to interrupt civic and social spaces with unexpected moments of beauty, curiosity and joy and to dismantle barriers between individuals by creating alternative stories that build compassion and kinship. thiswasnow.com
