Environmental art is one way to bring awareness to our environment and what we need to do to help it. French artist Henri Matisse said, “To look at something as though we had never seen it before requires great courage.” These five contemporary artists present us with an opportunity to bravely look anew at facets of our natural environment, which seriously need our love and support. 1. Naziha Mestaoui
Naziha Mestaoui is a Parisian artist and architect whose piece, “ 1 Heart 1 Tree, ” uses video-mapping techniques to highlight the primal importance of rainforests. This “global citizen work of art” enables people to plant a unique, virtual, live-streaming tree via a smartphone app that grows in a public space or on a world monument in sync with their heartbeat. Mestaoui explains that, “each personalized tree is planted/projected on a monument with the person’s name or positive message,” and that “each tree will have tangible impact: for every virtual tree, a real tree will be planted in a reforestation program around the world.”
