| Summary: | This contribution presents an account of an artistic experiment and agroforestry plantations carried out by an association with the participation of students from an agricultural secondary school in Northern France. The article reports on an educational approach that departs from the usual frames of reference by instilling the importance of the role of trees and forests in a profession that sometimes loses sight of the tree’s role as a tool. By working on the aesthetic and symbolic aspects of trees, these pupils have adopted an old heritage, a long cultural affiliation of their profession to the forest. Thanks to the tree, they have been able to project themselves into another time frame departing from the notion of urgency to adopt that of introspection. It is necessary to search one’s heart and consider the contours of a profession which needs to question its practices, reinvent its relationship to the site and project itself into the future. The article seeks to recount this cultural taming of the tree by the agricultural world. |
