Jon Foreman is a land artist from Wales who creates mesmerizing artworks using stones as his paint and beach as his canvas.
To create his land art, Foreman meticulously arranges hundreds of stones, making sure to align them by color, shape, and size into captivating patterns and images. Occasionally, the artist also uses other found materials like sea shells, branches, and leaves. Each piece aims to reflect his appreciation for natural beauty and pay tribute to the world that surrounds him.
Most of the time, Foreman doesn’t have a plan about how his next artwork will look like. He enters the process with an open mind, allowing the inspiration of the moment to lead him.
Creating land art isn’t just a way for Foreman to express his creativity. It also serves as a way to deal with the stress of everyday life, providing a therapeutic effect.
“Repeat processes are always very therapeutic and this is a good example of that, getting lost in the process is an important part of land art,” Foreman told Street Art News in a recent interview.
Due to weather conditions and sometimes human interference, Foreman’s land art usually doesn’t survive for long. However, the artist makes sure to capture a photo of each piece and share it with the rest of the world on his social media. Check out more of his works below.
