With an Alder in Kaivopuisto

Arlander Annette

This time-lapse video is part of the project "Performing with Plants". I sat on an alder stub in Kaivopuisto Park in Helsinki in 2017, between 12 January and 17 December, all in all 100 times. I recorded the sessions and edited them into a video that contains one minute of each session.
