When street art meets nature, the results are stunning. Some artists blend their murals seamlessly with the landscape, while others use real plants to bring their work to life.
In Ecuador, El Decertor painted a mural that merges with the natural surroundings. In Martinique, Nuxuno Xän turned a tree trunk into part of a painted figure. In New York, OGMillie created a floral mural that brightens the urban space. In Brazil, Fábio Gomes Trindade’s portraits use real bougainvillea as hair, while in Poland, Natalia Rak painted a girl appearing to water a living tree.
These works show how street art and nature can come together in unexpected and beautiful ways.

Lux Tenebris
Jon Foreman: Created at Pensarn, Abergele. This was the last piece I made in 2021! I was glad to have gotten the chance to work on a large scale again, it had been a while! As ever I had an idea that changed as I progressed but I love that this one has curves going horizontally and vertically with a kind of half pipe effect (a curved ramp of stones either side). Also very lucky to have had the chance to capture the sea engulfing it. Although it was coming in very fast it was coming very calmly which allowed me to get plenty of photos, got my feet wet for this shot!
Crescent
Jon Foreman: Created at Lindsway Bay, Pembrokeshire. I’m so used to following the circle round further that its hard to break the habit. Glad to have managed it with this one though! It really feels like it merges into the sand, which is something that I’m not sure I’ve succeeded in doing in the past. At least not as well as this one.
Dissicio Quadratum
Created at Freshwater West.
Circumflexus
Jon Foreman: Created for Llano Earth Art Fest Texas. This is the most intensive work I’ve created and took four days to complete! I initially started with the largest stones making the back of the circle, as the stones got smaller I began to realise the time that would be involved. I’d love to know how many there actually are! Photo by Laurence Winram Photography.
Fluidus
Jon Foreman: Yes it looks like a jellyfish, no its not meant to be one. I’m not trying to suppress any imagination but for me I’m essentially trying to create something that doesn’t yet exist so that attachment to something that does exist gets on my nerves haha also feels like its oversimplifying the work a bit… But call it what you want haha!This one was actually created before “Peruersum” (The 4 day piece created at LEAF) and is what Peruersum was based on. The difference being that I didn’t have the time fill a full circle for this one so I got the opportunity at LEAF. I love creating the familiarity between pieces of work without directly repeating something. Having said that, i don’t know that I could directly repeat a piece of work without it becoming a tiny bit different!
Also the sand was really annoying that day and every time I put a stone into the sand it created the cracks you can see between the stones, interesting effect i suppose
Acervus Circlus
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West. I love working like this, finding colours that contrast well and placing on top of one another. Very satisfying work to do, showing freshwater Wests colours in a different way, although I usually add white too I thought amongst these white may stand out too much.
Expletio Duo
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West. This piece is 1 in a 3 part set that I’m trying to get made. Many of you will have seen “Expletio” which is a single spiral using these same colours and this fractal style of working. I shall at some stage be creating the third in the set which will be a triple spiral in the same style! Anyway this one proved more fiddly than the previous version, I think I must have downscaled it a bit and that coupled with cold/windy weather made for difficult work. Got there in the end though!
Druid Spiral
Jon Foreman: Created at Druidston I love working with the slate at this beach, definitely has a different vibe and colour, I’ll have to get back there again soon!
Sinking Circle
Jon Foreman: Although I don’t consider myself an especially good photographer I’m very happy with how this one turned out, aside from the work itself looking good (and with this angle showing the incline more clearly) aside from the work I think I caught the atmosphere of the day which isn’t often very obvious in my work! Also love the water making the edge of the stones glow and they disappear into the distance, I’m all about depth within the sculpture why not outside the sculpture too.
Lumen
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West. A couple of years back I created a very similar piece to this, the only difference being that the stones were previously placed flat. I feel the sense of movement is enhanced with them placed this way really radiating outward as they disperse.
Nether Flower
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West. Couldn’t resist sharing this angle with the shadows! This one got a little bit messy in the middle because of the nature of the placement in the space available. I have to start in the middle and slot the next layer behind the previous so the more I add the less space there is in the small “hole” I made for this. So yeah they got a little bit squashed but I can live with that!
Above Below
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West. Another mushroom creation, couldn’t resist making use of the massive branch of driftwood. Again these are just stones balanced on sticks accept where they go over the driftwood. A fun one for sure… More mushrooms to come!
Shroom Sheet
Jon Foreman: Created at Freshwater West I’ve done quite a lot now with shrooms, yes they’re stones balanced on sticks, no – its not as difficult as it seems! .. until you start putting them very close together… But until creating this piece I’ve yet to work with them while incorporating colour (or more precisely colour change) as with this one! I’ll likely do more at some stage!
Obnatus Luna
Jon Foreman: These stones are often buried under the sand when there’s been particularly high tides so I have to hope they’re not buried every time!More: 6 Amazing Land Art Creations by Jon Foreman You Have to See

Powerful Art: 1,000 Melting Ice Sculptures in Berlin

In Berlin’s Gendarmenmarkt square, Brazilian artist Nele Azevedo created a powerful art display to talk about climate change.
She placed 1,000 small ice sculptures on the steps of the square, each shaped like a person. As the day got warmer and the sun shone brighter, the sculptures began to melt. This showed how global warming is affecting our planet.
The event, organized with WWF Germany, focused on how the Arctic’s ice is melting faster than ever because of rising temperatures. This doesn’t just affect the Arctic—it impacts the whole world. Melting ice leads to rising sea levels and extreme weather, making it clear that we need to act fast.
As the ice figures melted, people watching the display started thinking about how fragile life is and how important it is to protect the environment. Azevedo’s art used a simple idea to send a big message about the need to fight climate change.

When the ice sculptures disappeared, they left a lasting memory for everyone who saw them. The melting showed how quickly we are losing time to fix climate change. It’s not just the ice that’s going away; it’s our chance to act.

Climate Change Addressed Through Street Art (16 Powerful Images)
Climate change is one of the most pressing issues facing our planet, and artists are using graffiti and street art as a powerful means to address this global crisis.
In today’s blog post, we’ll explore 16 awe-inspiring images that not only capture the urgency of climate change but also inspire us to take action in our daily lives.1. Melting Ice: A Visual Reminder of Our Fragile Ecosystem
One powerful image that often appears in climate change-themed street art is the depiction of melting ice caps and glaciers. These striking visuals serve as a stark reminder of the rapid and devastating impact of global warming on our planet’s delicate ecosystems.The ice sculptures, handcrafted by Brazilian artist Nele Azevedo, were set up in a public area by WWF Germany to show the direct effect of climate change in the Arctic on the whole planet and the future of humanity and nature:

Climate Change: Tiny ice figurines draw attention to big problem
2. Endangered Species: The Fight to Preserve Biodiversity
Many artists use their talent to draw attention to the plight of endangered species, highlighting the importance of conservation efforts to protect Earth’s biodiversity. These emotive images remind us of the consequences of inaction and encourage us to support wildlife preservation.By Louis Masai at Shoreditch Station in London, UK
“The Wrong Amazon Is Burning” on the Amazon Tower in Berlin
3. Deforestation: The Disappearing Lungs of Our Planet
Street art that tackles deforestation brings attention to the alarming rate at which we are losing Earth’s precious forests – our planet’s lungs. These powerful images drive home the importance of preserving our natural resources and the urgent need for reforestation efforts.By Dr Love at Upfest – In Bristol, England
Martín Ron: The causes? Many: Extreme climate change, drought, deforestation, reduction of wetlands and a lot of disinterest in asking ourselves questions. The consequences? Too many. This mural is part of a new series of murals in which I am working where the protagonist is the reflection. And how opportune to get involved to invite you to reflect on what happens when a river runs out of water.
4. Extreme Weather: The New Normal
As climate change worsens, extreme weather events have become increasingly common. Artists often depict these events in their work to illustrate the direct consequences of our changing climate and the urgency to act now.Support – By Italian sculptor Lorenzo Quinn in Venice, Italy.
5. Rising Sea Levels: The Threat of Disappearing Coastlines
Rising sea levels pose a significant threat to coastal communities worldwide. Street art depicting submerged cities and landscapes can evoke a strong emotional response, emphasizing the need for immediate climate action to protect our planet’s future.By Banksy: I don’t believe in global warming
6. Pollution: The Toxic Reality of Our Modern World
Graffiti and street art can serve as a powerful reminder of the consequences of unchecked pollution, from smog-filled skies to plastic-choked oceans. These images can inspire us to make sustainable choices and reduce our individual carbon footprints.Street Art by HIJACK – A Collection (42 photos)
CONDITIONAL LOVE – By SaRX 404 on Climate Change
7. Renewable Energy: The Path to a Cleaner Future
Many artists choose to showcase renewable energy solutions in their work, promoting a cleaner, greener future. By depicting solar panels and wind turbines, these images encourage us to support and invest in alternative energy sources.Clean Energy – By TABBY
8. Sustainability: A Lifestyle Shift
Street art can inspire us to adopt more sustainable lifestyles by highlighting the benefits of eco-friendly practices, such as recycling, composting, and reducing waste. These images can motivate us to make simple, everyday changes to lessen our impact on the environment.By Leon Keer: Nice 3D effect and interesting motifs on the cups if you look closer. Green – oil rigs and a polluted beach. Pink – a stranded broken abandoned boat. Brown – a dead moose. Blue – a far from equal meeting between settlers and Indians.
9. Climate Activism: The Power of Collective Action
Many artists use their work to celebrate and support climate activism, featuring images of protesters and powerful messages calling for change. These visuals remind us that our collective voices can make a difference in the fight against climate change.Politicians Discussing Climate Change by Isaac Cordal
10. Hope: A Brighter Future Awaits
Lastly, climate change-themed street art often conveys a message of hope, depicting a brighter, greener future if we take action now. These uplifting images serve as a reminder that it’s not too late to make a positive impact on our planet’s health.Interview with Swedish street artist Herr Nilsson (+18 artworks)
These 16 powerful images of graffiti and street art addressing climate change remind us of the urgency to act and inspire us to make a difference in our daily lives.
Whether it’s supporting renewable energy, reducing waste, or advocating for policy changes, each one of us has the power to contribute to the fight against climate change. Let these compelling visuals serve as a call to action, motivating us to protect our planet for generations to come.

1.
“Below” at Lindsway Bay, Wales, UK
Jon Foreman: Wanted to do this one for a while, great to do this drawing style again and get lost in the process. Good weather always helps too. This illusion/composition isn’t nearly as complex as you’d expect, just a bunch of circles really. Then I just add in all the patterns like many of my previous works. There is however a mistake which is very easy to spot, I’ll leave that for you guys to work out.2.
“Extimus Lux”
3.
“Explosia” at Freshwater West, Wales, UK
Jon Foreman: Often I get to a location not knowing what I’m about to create, this was one of those days. Upon starting all I had in mind was to start with big stones and work my way down to small stones. After a while it became apparent that this was turning into a work very similar to that of Dietmar Voorwold (who btw you should all check out cause his work is awesome!) anyway my point is there are things that I do in land art such as playing with scale/ colour that lead me to places that have already been discovered and it was completely unintentional for it to look like his work, I tried to then add my own style to it by dispersing the stones. Once I got so far I had to finish it having spend a good few hours on it already. Anyway I hope its seen more as a nod to an awesome artist than me copying his work.4.
“Calefacio Stella” at Freshwater West, Wales, UK
5.
“Exspergo Luna” at Freshwater West, Wales, UK
[b][b]Jon Foreman: [/b]A very time consuming way of working, the stones being compact and interlocking makes for a more solid piece but I could resist a disperse inwards. For some reason this style reminds me of jelly beans. Probably cause of the randomness of the angles that they’re placed. Also, recalling the light from photographing a previous moon piece. I chose to wait a while seeing a cloud heading my way and went for the capture while the cloud was thin so that there would still be shadow, but not too harsh a shadow.6.

Jon Foreman: Definitely had some collapses with this one. Previous to this work I’ve made pieces to test the strength of the mud/clay that I gather from the river nearby. This shows it well, I used it to stick the sticks to the tree and the leaves to to sticks. Definitely enjoying the mushroom quality and the ability to work much more three dimensionally.12
