Blending science, art and design, Arboreal Futures is a transdisciplinary exhibition exploring the future of trees and forest ecosystems indigenous to Switzerland. It features works by artists Maja Renn and Krzysztof Wronski, developed in collaboration with EPFL's Plant Ecology Research Lab (PERL).

Trees can live for more than 1,000 years, and current climate models predict climate change of just over 100 years in the future. What will happen then?

A collaboration between the PERL, performance artist Maja Renn and designer and artist Krzysztof Wronski has given rise to a speculative journey through time and into the near future of indigenous trees.

The exhibition was produced by Climanosco, EPFL Pavilions and Durabilité EPFL, and is part of the series of exhibitions an cultural events Dear2050.
