The Wasted Forest

In the first days of 2007, coming out of my apartment in Bucharest, I saw a dumped Christmas tree. Then another one further down the street, and then some more. My discovery led to 3 days of walking around my neighbourhood and taking over 200 photographs of abandoned Christmas trees. After seeing several hundred trees, it seemed like the places I was going through had been the scene of a massacre, with trees taking the place of bodies.
