The incident, likely caused by heavy rains and strong winds, showed the vulnerability of trees within urban environments like Singapore and the impact they can have on infrastructure when they fall. This incident sparked an unusual fascination with fallen trees, leading to an exploration of how urban areas manage the risks posed by aging or weakened trees. The zine documents this incident alongside instances of tree pruning and tree removal, reflecting on how cities like Singapore balance nature and development.
