About the trees proposed for the park

We start in 2019 a new series of texts about trees, with illustrations. These are the proposed trees for each station of the park, supposed to surround the presented sculptures.

There is a comprehensive, specialized literature regarding each tree, these amazing Oxygen Producing Units (OPU). Entire books where written with their data on planting, growth, maximal height, reproduction and utilization.

Nevertheless, this series of short texts aims to:

  • Comment on what can be observed by any person who approaches the tree
  • Encourage those who live immersed in a technology society to observe plants, trees and flowers
  • Let grow an attitude of regard for Nature, necessary factor for our survival on this planet

The first text, “Lightness presents Mirindiba Rosa” will come along the first station, on April 10th.

Read and get yourself enchanted !

The park as it goes

After six years of texts and proposals for the future nature, we start in this month of April 2019, the presentation of a park project.

Every four months, we will show a sculpture and a tree (a so called station of the park). A short text about the tree and a pencil drawing will follow.

The trees selected to be planted in each of the stations are native species of the Atlantic Forest (Mata Atlantica), a biome situated along the brazilian coast, from the northeast until the southern region.

The sculptures belong to Maple’s Linetracer “Monumentals” collection. Get to know this abstract style at: https://maplelinetracer.wordpress.com/

The figurative drawings, created in the Depicter style, can be found at:

“Lightness” is the name of the first station, coming on April 10.
