â â â â â â â â â one of my favorite spots in the world is on the other side of this spot. due south, just outside the frame. that other side composes well each time producing beautiful shots without effort, but capturing this damn tree perplexes me. â â â â â â â â â neskowin : oregon â â â â â â â â â #ghostforest https://www.instagram.com/p/CZKZfrwJc5b/?utm_medium=tumblr
Maya Lin âGhost Forestâ
âJust seeing the shadows that the trees are going to make become such a part of the piece.â -Maya Lin, Ghost Forest.
âBut âGhost Forest,â like Linâs Vietnam Veterans Memorial, is also a work of decolonization â actively seeking out what has been lost in the ravages of colonialism and acknowledging the trauma that remains in order to heal and find pathways forward.â Vina Orden, Hyperallergic.
 1. What does this installation evoke for you? Does it inspire you? What emotions does this piece elicit?
Maya Linâs âGhost Forestâ in Madison Square Park, elicits grief. It causes the audience to feel like they are standing in a graveyard, mourning. But we are not just mourning the earth, for a lot of young people we are mourning our futures. Linâs exhibit shows us what our world could look like if big corporations continue to turn a blind eye to climate change. We could be entering the 6th Mass Extinction of Earth.
However, Linâs purpose for this piece was not just to riddle the audience with guilt, and hopelessness, but uses this installation to call the community together. Throughout the running of the exhibit, Lin and Madison Square Park Conservancy have orchestrated a series of public programs aimed at nature-based solutions to climate change. For example, whatismissing.org suggests that we should eat less meat and support sustainable agriculture, fisheries, forestry, and buy environmentally friendly products.Â
2. What do you think was the artist's intention in installing this piece in the center of a Manhattan park?
When you live in a city you tend to take nature for granted. Yes we have parks, and thereâs little plots of grass that we let our dogs do their business on our way to get morning coffee but we canât exactly do outdoor activities like stargaze or camp in our own backyards. We rely heavily on technology, gas powered transportation, and consumerism here. I believe Linâs intention when installing this piece in the center of a Manhattan Park was to wake up New Yorkers, and call them out for sleepwalking through this global crisis. Sometimes itâs a little too easy for us to ignore issues if we canât see it happening in front of us. Thatâs why Maya Lin installed 40 ft, dead trees in one of Manhattanâs most beloved parks.
3. What is your earliest memory of an encounter with a bird song?
In NYC, we donât have a lot of biodiversity. Iâm pretty sure the only animals I see are rats, and pigeons. When I lived in New Jersey, I used to live in the middle of the woods. I would wake up everyday to the sounds of blue jays and robins singing to each other from separate trees and they would tango with each other in the sky. One of my earliest memories with a bird song however, was when I would visit my Grandparents house in Vermont, and my Grandma would wake me up to watch the Goldfinches sing. She would call them âPiggy Birdsâ since every morning they would devour all the birdseed weâd leave out for them.Â
4. In your childhood, did you ever come up with or hear of an audacious idea to solve climate change? What was it?Â
Climate change has always been an ongoing topic of conversation throughout my life. None of us want our lives changing forever, with no way to reverse the damage weâve done. I remember having a silly conversation with my dad in the car where he thought âSurely, there is a simple solution to all of this.â He then addresses the issues with the melting of the ice caps. My dad explains that the smoke from forest fires tends to travel to the arctic and blankets itself on the ice caps, which turns them black. Black attracts sunlight which leads to the ice caps melting more rapidly. My father thinks there are two solutions:Â
Paint the ice caps white
Build huge industrial snow machines to make up for the snow that is melting.Â
Both seem like ambitious ideas but I appreciated the conversation none-the-less.Â
5. What was your childhood connection to nature? Has the pandemic inspired a reconnection to awe, to trees, to skyscapes, wildlife? Please describe with details.
As a child, I was all about playing outside. I would even go as far as playing outside barefoot because I wanted to feel more connected to the earth, like a hobbit in Lord of the Rings. I still havenât lost my roots entirely and the pandemic definitely gave me an opportunity to re-explore my backyard along with other beautiful habitats in America. The pandemic encouraged me to be outside, as everyone soon got sick of their own homes. Funny enough, a year ago today I started making my way to Mesquite, Nevada where my friends and I stayed for a couple weeks as we visited a couple different national parks in the area. We visited Zion National Park and the Grand Canyon. My favorite memory from the trip was camping along the edge of the Grand Canyon, cuddled up for warmth with my friends. I donât think Iâve seen so many stars in the sky at one time.
