Maria Westerberg, known as Vildhjärta ("Wild Heart"), is a Swedish artist, poet, and environmental advocate whose unique "twig art" and poignant poetry have captivated audiences across Sweden. Living in the forests of Värmland, she transforms fallen branches and natural materials into expressive sculptures, each accompanied by reflective verses that explore the deep connection between humans and nature.

In this short film Maria shares a heartfelt poem that serves as both a tribute to the forest and a call to protect it. Her work not only highlights the beauty of the natural world but also addresses pressing environmental concerns, urging a reevaluation of our relationship with nature.
