spiral land art by mathieu nouhen conjures mystical undertones in rural france
Briefly

It is the passage of man that creates strength, abnormality, absurdity. We symbolize a present or past presence. It is a form turned towards humans, but also towards the other inhabitants of this agricultural land, those who will witness the change.
Moreover, this spiral with four centers, a symbolic form of the fossil, represents the passage of time - the temporal flow of the relationship between the landscape and the raw elements that shape it.
Through this particular and mystical arrangement of stakes, a form is created, a message appears, guiding and inducing a path towards the center. Space, symbols, boundaries, and directions are created.
When the work was dismantled, we were able to see the passage of 13,122 visitors, like a fossil. A trace, yet another mark of our passage, which will also fade away.
