Land artist Jon Foreman sitting beside a large stone spiral on a beach in Druidston, Wales, with black stones arranged in concentric rings that decrease in size toward the center.

1. Revolve — Druidston, Hamlet in Wales

A spiral formation of dark stones arranged concentrically on sand, drawing the viewer’s eye inward toward the center of the sculpture.

Jon Foreman: Although I love it when a big wave takes the piece in one, Sometimes the gently lapping waves can provide an extra element to a piece. In this case the small crease lines in the sand – a reaction to the stones being there provide an extra essence of motion to a work that already suggests that. I respond to nature, nature responds to me. A conversation, if you like.

2. Circuitus Meridiem — Druidston, Hamlet in Wales

A radiant stone mandala on the sand, transitioning from white pebbles at the center to grey and black stones at the edges, forming a sun-like pattern.

5. Lapis Folium — Gann Estuary (Dale), Wales

Spiral stone artwork at the water’s edge, made of alternating dark and white stones forming twisting arms with ocean waves and a glowing horizon behind.

7. Ripple — Qixingtan Beach, Hualien, Taiwan

A hypnotic spiral of black and white stones forming a galaxy-like swirl directly on the wet shoreline during sunset.

Jon Foreman: As a Ripple, through water undulates and expands, as does the flow of this artwork. Symbolic of the expansion of the festival and the waves it makes, bringing people together from across seas and transcending languages. This piece is also an evolution and expansion on the piece created by myself and Terry in Hualien last year. Spent a few days on this, very slow work, but luckily the sun was behind the clouds this time, so it wasn’t as hot as last time!, we built this piece to last for the festival time so between every large stone there are three small pebbles that act as a tripod for the next stone, even the smallest stacks feature this technique. it was very slow work by comparison to my more floor based work. The overall form is influenced by the ripple effect caused by a droplet in water. I have a fascination with creating flow with such solid objects as stones. I think there’s more to be experimented with for this form.

8. Colos Chaos — Freshwater West

A collaboration with Layla Parkin, featuring hundreds of stacked stone towers that together form a geometric explosion or starburst.

Jon Foreman: It was quite a rush towards the end as the sun was going down, I would have liked to have adjusted some bits even after looking at pictures now, even so I’m still happy with it!
