Branches awaiting installation. |
Coda: Blued Trees is a site specific art installation created by ecological artist Aviva Rahmani.
Aviva Rahmani's installation concept |
It is based on her work on The Blued Trees Symphony which uses copyrighted artwork, trees painted with a non-toxic buttermilk slurry, to protect landowners from private corporations using eminent domain for private gain. The basis of the legal framework is based on the Visual Arts Rights Act.
