Ruth will share intimate conversations with a girdled tree, whose bark has been circumferentially removed as part of an effort to prevent forest fires. Through these exchanges she will reflect on how to touch and be touched by a tree in the forest, the power of fire, the legacy of settler colonialism, and the ongoing ecological degradation of our times.
