The Neverleave Tree

Vincent Straub

A collaborative poem that exchanges lines between three voices, written during a period of shared grief and loss

The Neverleave was written in collaboration with the artist Claudia Sacher and Viviane Straub. It is is available to read as a web poem and in print (contact Vincent Straub to order a copy).

The Neverleave tree was part of the 2025 exhibition Hand/Hans/Haus, which took place in the arts space Crossing.Kunstraum in Essen, Germany, and was later shown in the exhibition When life happens, which took place in the Dolphin Gallery in St John’s College, Oxford, UK.
