In 2014, Scottish artist Katie Paterson started a project in Norway. One thousand trees were planted just outside of Oslo, for a very specific mission in mind. The goal is to create the “Future Library” out of the trees planted in the forest, one hundred years from now. And every year, a writer contributes an unpublished, unread manuscript to the collection which will be held in trust. Artist Katie Paterson describes the Future Library as a living, breathing, organic artwork, unfolding over literally a century. And she joins us now from Edinburgh to talk more about the project. #FutureLibrary #Showcase
