about
Most of us perceive the forest as a peaceful place that we visit mainly for regeneration, contemplation and rest. For us, it is synonymous with silence. But its inner life is as dramatic as that of any form of organism or universe. Trees also feel, have memory, pass on information, care for their offspring and even look after their old and sick neighbours. Every tree is like a human being and a human being is like a tree. With age, it dies, withers, falls to the ground and decays. Then, on the lying, decaying trunks, young trees grow, new life springs up.
The composition People Are Trees, Trees Are People was created especially for the Czech outdoor furniture brand mmcité Česko on the occasion of the Designblok exhibition, Prague International Design Festival 2022, whose theme was the forest. It is also the first recorded composition in a changed line-up, with the addition of Marek Novotný's bass guitar.The forest is perceived by most of us as a peaceful place that we visit mainly for regeneration, contemplation and rest.
