Our Love Affair with trees

This evocative book brings together reflections from artists, botanists, gardeners, entrepreneurs, nurses, and children—individuals from all walks of life. Through striking photographic portraits of dancers in dialogue with trees, it explores the deep and varied connections between humans and the natural world.

Each dancer, paired with a specific tree, becomes a living symbol of our enduring relationship with these silent, rooted companions—offering a visual meditation on presence, stillness, and the wisdom of the nature.

In association with Len Metcalf

Len Metcalf is an acclaimed Australian photographer and educator known for his poetic landscapes and deep affinity with Earth's ecosystems. His lifelong passion began in the late 1960s when he was gifted his first camera, growing up among the mists and escarpments of the Blue Mountains. Today, he is widely respected for his work as a mentor, teacher, and founder of Len’s School, with exhibitions and publications spanning the globe. His images—often shaped by light, mood, and quiet presence—invite us to see trees not just as subjects, but as our friends.
