Artist Creates Harmonizing Patterned Land Art By Arranging Stones And Other Materials (47 New Pics)

As pretty as this is, please refrain from moving the rocks and stones around. People, especially tourists, love to do this and build little stone towers or mandalas or whatever. But this seriously disturbs the fauna. Don'T do this just because it looks pretty in an instagram picture. STOP.

As you may be able to tell from my comments, I believe the "leave no trace" (in a naturally permanently dynamically changing environment) and other Killjoys are hyperbolic. Leave no permanent trace, is certainly reasonable. Leave not litter, leave no pollution, etc. But to proclaim that moving the natural items from an environment cause so damage is questionable. But there are legitimate articles describing the "damage". Ok, cite them. As a Ph.D. Chemist, I would LOVE to read them. We (people) have been able to detect a single molecule in a sample since 1981. A remarkable achievement, but of no practical consequence. I spent my whole career measuring "stuff" and I am confident that being able to see / measure something absolutely does NOT mean the observation is relevant.

Andy Goldsworthy is the artist that no doubt inspired some of this guys work. Goldsworthy is an extraordinary artist. https://andygoldsworthystudio.com/archive/

This guy must have a pretty big stone(rock) library. The rocks are colored, they're clean, and they make beautiful designs in the sand.
