"...This exhibition delivered insight, knowledge, new ways of seeing, experiencing, and enhancing the health of our cities.... its works and the ideas animating it are deep, large and expansive."
“Shlain’s arresting and philosophically charged sculptures made with salvaged wood and fire-writing, with Goldberg’s artistically expressed data-gathering and AI-enhanced “tree census,” in a tech-driven and human-sourced case for an expanded way of looking at time and human history”

"Tiffany Shlain and Ken Goldberg harness the beauty and power of trees."

"...A rare combination of exquisite craftsmanship and dedicated scholarship"
"Ancient Wisdom for a Future Ecology: Trees, Time, and Techonology at the Skirball Cultural Center is a mind-bending installation..."
