Coed Coexist began with an act of nature...
In January 2024 a winter storm brought down a large beech tree in the grounds of Plas Glyn-y-Weddw. The tree had stood for an estimated 150 - 200 years, shaped by the coastal winds and weather of the Llŷn Peninsula.
Local woodworker John Egan and metal artist Junko Mori saw the fallen tree not simply as timber, but as a material with a story still to tell. From this moment, and in collaboration and partnership with Plas Glyn-y-Weddw, the idea for Coed Coexist emerged – a project that draws our attention to woodland ecosystems while connecting community, creativity and environmental stewardship.
The beech tree became the centre of the project. The trunk was milled into planks, branches and even the smallest offcuts and sawdust were retained, with some material turned into charcoal. The aim was to honour the life of the tree by using as much of it as possible.
