From interventions that echo the contours of the earth to ephemeral gestures shaped by time and weather, land art engages directly with the landscape as both canvas and collaborator. This research explores how site-specific artistic practices reframe our relationship with nature, revealing hidden ecologies, geological narratives, and the poetics of place, and it is part of an ongoing project.
