"The Forests Imaginary trial-374 Grieving Poems"
Publication, 2023

This small and beautiful book of poems, is a passage between the performance MEDIATING NATURE 2023 & THE FORESTS’ TRIAL performance 2024. 

It's given to the audience in the performance MEDIATING NATURE. The grieving introduction invites the audience /reader as jury to represent the list of 2363 endanger species in the world, which cross the entire book, along side 374 grieving poems for the disappearance of 11 colors in the world. The parallelism between these lists of species and colors disappearences, intends to awaken in the reader, sadness, and hopefully, the urgent need to act collectively in defense of Nature, or at least the wish to participate in decreasing it rapid destruction.

The book is also for the audienc to prepare to the next performance THE FOREST TRIAL, a fictional staged trial created in defense of those who cannot speak: Nature.
