Artist Statement:
In Effects of the Wind on a Small Tree, artist Élène Tremblay brings a small ornamental tree into a wind tunnel at an engineering laboratory. Submitted to the maximum forces of the machine, the tree bends dangerously at increasing levels of risk until the machine is turned off. The work points to the increasingly sophisticated ordeals that living things face in a technological environment.
