Ar•bo•res•co [ärbɔˈreːs̠koː], verb, lat. ‒ to become a tree
The trees have always been here. They are here when we found the land, and when we die, we will become them. When we found the land, they were there, and when we die, we will become them. Trees remind us of the cycle of life and death, and the promise of rebirth. Trees stand by and watch us hustle around in our busy little lives. They exist alongside us, quietly standing by. Unshaken and unmoved.
Nils Wiklund earned his BFA in Transmedia and Photography at Syracuse University in 2017 and has been working in printing since. In 2022, Nils began a self-driven photography project that, during his residency, solidified into Arboresco, a body of work that reminds us to disconnect and spend time in nature.
