23träd

23träd is a Swedish artist collective known for their work in public art and interactive installations. The group, which formed in the early 2000s, focuses on creating projects that engage with their environment and the public, often incorporating natural elements and technology. Their name, "23träd," translates to "23 trees" in English, hinting at their recurring themes of nature and growth.

The collective's projects are characterized by their site-specific nature, meaning each piece is designed to respond to the particular location and context in which it is installed. This approach often leads to unexpected and delightful encounters for viewers. Examples of their work include sculptures that change with the seasons, light installations that respond to sound, and participatory projects that encourage community involvement.

23träd has exhibited and realized projects in various public spaces across Sweden and internationally. Their artistic practice often involves research into local history, ecology, and social dynamics, which informs the conceptual underpinnings of their creations. The collective aims to foster dialogue, encourage observation, and bring a sense of wonder to everyday surroundings through their art. They often collaborate with local communities, architects, and urban planners to integrate their artistic vision into the fabric of urban and rural landscapes.
