Three Wise Trees, Aroma, Music and Art

How might essences sound? How might we deepen our connection to plants and receive their print, song and consciousness in us? Baroque composers use aesthetics and symbology to communicate the full palette of emotions and stories to us. What happens when these symbols are used to convey the energetic movement of ‘Three Wise Trees’, Aleppo pine, Cade and Cypress? ‘Espurnes Barroques’ (‘Baroque Sparks’ Music Festival) commissioned EssènciesCat to inaugurate their program in 2023 with ‘Breathe Tree’; an installation of paintings in smoke, oil on canvas and Japanese ink by Marina Berdolate with music and aroma by EssènciesCat, together with an educational project for three primary schools, commemorating 25 years of forest fires that ravished the local area.
