Paper Trees at the High Museum of Art explores the relationship between nature and representation through works on paper that examine trees as both subject and symbol. The exhibition highlights how artists have interpreted the natural world through drawing, printmaking, and other paper-based media.

Across different periods and approaches, the works reflect a range of artistic strategies, from observational study to more expressive or conceptual interpretations. Trees become a point of entry into broader ideas about environment, growth, time, and transformation.

By focusing on paper as both medium and surface, the exhibition emphasizes material sensitivity alongside image-making, revealing how artists translate the organic into line, texture, and form.
