When Nancy Cadogan witnessed the felling of trees in her neighbourhood for the HS2 project, a community’s grief and their personal stories emerged, revealing the deep connections people had to these treasured specimens.

In The Lost Trees, artist Nancy explored the emotional and environmental significance of trees, with her paintings serving as memorials and tributes to these lost giants.

Whether from private gardens, parks, or hedgerows—each felled for different reasons. These works are uplifting testaments to the enduring legacy of trees and the vital role they play in our lives, and what they do for us.
