Environment - Art - Technology - Education

CityTrees is an initiative to develop and connect technological advanced art installations in different cities around the world that convey an educational message about the environment and sustainability.



Watch video for the CityTrees challenge.

The CityTree installations demonstrate that limited renewable energy resources provide us with an opportunity to boost up creativity and improve innovation in favor of a sustainable future. The project aims to blend, technology and art in order to inspire and engage the public about new developments in the field of sustainability and the environment.

CityTrees is a spin off from the polliniferous project, which
enabled runners equipped with modified relay sticks to accumulate electrical energy and subsequently transfer it to the art installation. It put physical and mental efforts from individuals into a broader philosophical context about human energy, creativity and the environment.

We believe that lifestyle and sustainability are closely related concepts that can be addressed within the CityTree project. An educational CityTree program has been drafted to promote physical exercise while learning at the same time about sustainability and innovation.

The CityTree project encourages artist, deigners, universities and engineering students to join and explore new possibilities to engage the public with renewable energy and promote green innovation in a novel way.
