Land-Art

I came across an Australian land artist who's work resembles what I decided to do for my own project. At land-arts.com, you can take a closer look at Brad Schwede's artwork. Much of what he does is taking elements found in nature and building onto the earth. The environment plays a big role in his projects, because they are subjected to whatever forces are generated by nature. These forces either could alter or even destroy the piece. A lot of his work involves the use of circles, a symbol I wished to incorporate into my final project piece. The circle, to me, represents unity, balance, completion...all ideas I wanted to incorporate in a final art piece.

I will post my project in full over the weekend. For now, I encourage you to check out Brad Schwede's website and take a look at his art. He explains his reasoning behind every piece, it's all incredibly interesting to read.
