The image showcases Long’s manipulation of the natural environment to produce a deliberate and thoughtful design. This piece exemplifies how Land Art seeks to integrate artistic expression within the landscape, inviting viewers to reconsider their relationship with nature. The precision and simplicity of the cuts highlight the artist’s intent to leave an impactful and enduring mark on the natural terrain.
