A German artist, Joseph Bueys planted oak trees at the exhibition in Kassel in 1892. He thought tree planting as an art for environmental change as a social sculpture. After 40 years, these oaks are taller and greener. His idea inspired the Mulabari Art Village. Fruit tree planting started as part of art projects in this village. Some of them are already growing well and would make great land art for the village's barren hills.
