Based on a daydream (2009) Christoph saw himself walking over the thinnest branches of the rainforest. Since then he was convinced that he wanted to realize the poetic image „balancing between earth and sky“, going over the edge, almost flying. During the development process he has been successfully experimenting different ways of tree climbing to reach the tree tops. As the artist’s interest for the biodiversity in the canopy has grown, THE TREE WALKER has taken another dimension with the collaboration of world widely known French scientists and botanists (p.e. Operation Canopy - botanist Francis Halley und pilot Dany Clayet-Marrel and ANPN, Gabon/Africa).
