Tree of Life. a tribute to seeds. 2023

„Three of Life. a tribute to seeds“ was conceived as part of an exploration on how Universities can offer food to hundreds of students in a sustainable and healthy way.

The question of how a good education is based on good food drew a close connection between nourishing and nurturing. Education seeds the future. And this very future takes its energy from actual seeds and the care given to them.
