The work is about climate change and deforestation by connecting the rainforests and their peoples in Colombia with the forests of Germany. Many European forests have become unbalanced due to monoculture planting and climate change, resulting in an overpopulation of bark beetles (Scolytinae) that eat away at the trees, leaving behind enigmatic trails carved into the trunks.
