Description(English)	The Xmas’ TREe Nursery took a socially-engaging approach to convey an environmental message through a temporary installation. In lieu of gigantic installations common in Hong Kong in the Xmas’ season, 36 Xmas’ trees of humane scale made up by 16,000 recycled paper drink cartons, with the participation of over 1600 primary students and thousands of public, formed a Xmas’ tree nursery. Re-conceptualizing from festive consumerism icon back to one of sharing and respect for the environment, the Xmas’ trees planted lasting environmental awareness and initiate recycling habit in modern city living.
Description(Native)	於現今高度商業化的香港，每逢聖誕節期，各大商場及公共空間都爭相以大型聖誕裝置粉飾一番，營造濃烈的消費氣氛。然而，歡騰過後迎來的往往衍生各種廢物環保問題。 AaaM於2017年聖誕利用了16000多個回收紙包飲品盒子為香港創意基地PMQ製作了以36棵環保聖誕樹回應這問題。工作室視展覽為一個種植場，透過兩星期的展覽和工作坊與公眾把聖誕樹[種]出來，把環保意識持久地[植]入城市生活裡。 當聖誕樹於現代城市生活裡漸漸成為消費主義的象徵時，AaaM利用原本就以樹木造成的紙包飲品盒，透過設計轉化重塑回樹的形象，銳意把聖誕樹的象徵意義重新帶回節日共聚、資源分享與尊重環境的焦點上。而推動環保所需的公眾參與及持續性正正成為植樹場概念的核心原動力。這個為公眾參與共創的植樹空間雖只為期兩週，但無論從物質或精神層面上都擔當著推動環保過程中的關鍵催化作用。 AaaM巧妙地把樹木的意象貫穿整個植樹空間的不同維度。 7個不同品種高矮不一的聖誕樹被層層有序，從矮至高地排佈於一個大三角空間裡；從人視角度樹木錯落有致地建構出一個人性化、能在裡面遊走的樹林。從俯視角度樹林排列成一棵大的聖誕樹構圖，把環保主題和節日氣氛滲透兩旁高處的陽台空間，同時激活了元創方這七層高的創意基地的人流。展覽裡的16000多個紙包飲品盒由香港環保團體綠色力量聯同十多間小學回收，並由其中1600多個小學生共同折疊製作出來，展覽期間的也集合了公眾參與和環保工作坊，而所有種植場裡的聖誕樹和期間回收的物料於展覽結束喉將繼續重回再造的環保處理過程。
