Tree

ABDUL, Lida
We’re working on releasing this image.

This video work by Lida Abdul was awarded the Derek Williams Trust Artes Mundi Purchase Prize during Artes Mundi 3. Her work is a documentary that looks at young men discussing and reflecting on cutting down a tree and bearing fruit. In their discussion they explain that the tree represented the site of many hangings and that it had to be felled.

These images are stills from a film or video artwork. Artist films are often created with specific experiences or physical spaces in mind. As a result, and for additional copyright reasons, we’re currently unable to show the full work as it was intended online.


We have a duty of care to all our audiences. This website draws on legacy collections data. We recognise that some of this information may be outdated or discriminatory and we're currently working to review our records. If you have any questions or comments on an artwork, please contact us.
