This notebook has been exclusively produced to coincide with Performing Trees, an exhibition showcasing more than 50 works from the Whitworth’s collection.

The exhibition explores how trees perform as symbols of life, embodying vitality, growth and abundance and how they act as witnesses to history, standing as silent observers through generations.
