Tristram Aver is using lo-fi, environmentally friendly printmaking techniques (lino print on recycled/recyclable British paper from coffee cups) to produce 1,000 images of his Native British Trees in one day; the same number of trees that a professional planter can plant in a single day.

Prints of Aver’s tree “explosions” will be overlaid to create rows of tree-like silhouettes and canopies, in reference to the destructive impact humans have made on the natural world.

The images will be displayed as an installation over the weekend in advance of National Tree Week (24 Nov – 2 Dec). The work will be for sale (£10 per print) in aid of Autism East Midlands and The Woodland Trust.
