A mapping of the favourite trees of the inhabitants of the area of Botkyrka outside Stockholm. The information was converted into a foldable map marking out the trees that contained a story from each person involved.

Botkyrka is a suburban area often associated with grey concrete ghetto environments but the area also consists of forests and wild nature except for the suburban buildings. The trees chosen often related to the historical sites of the area.

Commissioned by Botkyrka Konsthall and Botkyrka kommun 2009. Illustrations by Maja Sten.
