Land Art Movement | Contemporary Art | Showcase



Showcase

In the 1960s the American art world was getting more and more commercialised. But at the same time, there was a rising trend towards environmentalism across the country. And so the land art movement was born when a group of artists wanted to get people out of museums and back into nature that they twisted, shaped and literally played with.

  1. I found my passion for Natural Land Art back in July 2015 in Bragg Creek, AB. Canada and started my very first project called: Winterfell. And it is still standing to this day!

    It's a great way to reach out to the community while inspiring people and having the chance to exercise and practice my love for art, creativity and imagination. And no one has to pay for it like they do by going to a museum. I don't believe in monetizing nature. That's not what it was intended for, it was intended for everyone to enjoy. And I believe it's a basic human right for us as Souls to be in harmony and cohesion with nature without charging for it…. such as National Parks.

    That's the very essence of Natural Land Art.

    Creativity is the Intelligence of the Soul. 🙂
