Human Tree, a surrealist evolution of the human being into a tree by monsieur plant.

Nature and man merge to become one in ‘Human Tree’
An installation representing Land artist, Christophe Guinet (AKA Monsieur Plant’s) surrealist concept of human evolution. the works, which see an uncanny depiction of a tree-man-like hybrid mark the opening of ‘the camp’, a futuristic open-air showroom and experimental garden where innovation and emerging technologies of the future are developed by its’ inhabitants in the heart of provence.

Mapping an imaginative trail in the wooded area of the camp
Land artist Christophe Guinet narrates the absorption of human rights by nature. under the playful epithet of Monsieur Plant, he presents 5 productions, inspired by what ‘nature’ offers us; the serenity, by its calm and quiet; the way, that leads us on the right path; the patience, it teaches us to wait calmly such a cycle; the creation, with its power of regeneration and the contemplation and its meditative state of rest.
