CITIES - sculptures and land art

Lappeenranta

Lappeenranta, Finland - Kantri & Urbaani - the environmental sculptures of Lucien den Arend - his environmental willow project in Lappeenranta, Finland - site specific art

2008 - impressionistic circumstantial demarcation, urban oasis - 37x37 steps

So I decided to define this oasis by demarcating it with two walls, or planes, of willow trees. Then there will be the random - naturally evolved willow growth around the pond, and my mathematically determined lines composed of the same type of tree. But this time the math was done intuitively. The meters were the length my steps, recorded with two willow twigs, which were used by my assistants to mark the locations for the holes.
