To Burn, Forest, Fire
Intervention
Ecology, geology and the cosmos are at the heart of Katie Paterson’s work as she creates poetic encounters between people and their environment. In To Burn, Forest, Fire, visitors encounter the first and the last forest. The fossilised forest of Cairo in the Hudson Valley (USA) is around 385 million years old. The Amazon rainforest represents the last forest. Paterson describes both forests using the scents of two incense sticks. The intervention To Burn, Forest, Fire takes place on five dates throughout the exhibition.
