Summary/Abstract: In this paper, Anouk Herman discusses the performance project 365 drzew [365 Trees] by Cracovian artist Cecylia Malik. The project involved the artist photographing herself and publishing the photos on her Facebook profile, which she did every day for 365 days. The aim of Malik’s work was to raise the awareness of the presence of the trees in the space of the city and to propagate close, childlike encounters with nature. For this reason, among the contexts which Herman summons in this analysis of Malik’s project are ecofeminist thought as well as two literary conventions, that of girlhood and that of (partly redefined) natural jester (Pl. sowizdrzał). Herman also uses the concept of transmedia in an attempt to describe the process of its transformations, from the literary to the visual context and back, while taking consideration the performance artist’s activity on the Internet.
