The task we chose to complete was to create a forest within the city. Originally we thought about the idea of using small toy trees and putting them around the city, it would have been a way to utilize the use of plastic toys to represent nature and trees, as most nature has become artificial, therefore emphasising the synthetic lifestyle of modern day life.

However, in light of the digital aspect of our site specific we opted to download an image on to a mobile phone and take a picture of that on another mobile phone in various places throughout the city.

On a bin down the High Street, the grey metal contrasting with the soft green colour of the forest.

On a larger scale, say a projection on to a building this could be quite significant in that it could really show how the new digital age makes seeing nature on a screen easier than seeing it with your own eyes.

Under a bush, a piece of nature strategically planted for aesthetic purpose, so not really natural at all.
