Amazing Sculptures by Jon Foreman! (12 Photos)
Content warning: Which one is your favorite?
From swirling spirals at Druidston to vibrant stone explosions at Freshwater West, Jon Foreman’s 2025 land art continued to reshape coastal landscapes into hypnotic, ephemeral beauty.

You’ll find new installations from Hualien, Taiwan to the Gann Estuary in Dale.
🔗 Follow Jon Foreman on Instagram
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.
3. Sol Colorum — Freshwater West
A vibrant circular piece created using multicolored pebbles arranged to blend from warm oranges and reds to purples and blues.
4. Halved — Lindsway Bay, Milford Haven, Pembrokeshire
Stones arranged in two opposing arcs, divided down the center, resembling a yin-yang or halved shape with contrasting pebble textures.
5. Lapis Folium — Gann Estuary (Dale), Wales
A leaf-shaped structure made of stacked red stones, aligned precisely to create a three-dimensional pointed form on sandy terrain.
6. Augere — Druidston, Hamlet in Wales
A wide circular composition using gradients of dark and pale stones to create a glowing center surrounded by layered outer rings.
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!
9. Shell Moon — Sandy Haven Beach, UK
A crescent moon shape composed entirely of hundreds of circular shells, arranged to fade out toward the edges of the arc.
10. Radiance — Freshwater West
A vibrant circular piece created with pebbles in a sunburst pattern, featuring spiky rays radiating out from a central void.
11. Fossil — Lindsway Bay, Pembrokeshire, UK
An enormous spiral sand drawing resembling a fossil imprint, carved directly into the beach with branching lines radiating from the center.
12. Fluidform — Pensarn, Wales
A smooth, organic formation built from hundreds of pale stones arranged in curving, wave-like lines that appear to ripple across the sand.

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!
Flos Tholus
Jon Foreman: At Freshwater West. The only plan I had was to make triangles that go from large in the middle to small on the outside, which, in essence is what i did. However it does really resemble the flower of life when seen from above. You’ll have to wait for that shot though! Stay tuned.
Direct
Jon Foreman: Direct, 2025. Created fairly recently (08/09/2025) at Poppit sands, a first for me making stoneworks. Had a great time that week with a bunch of Land Art friends, more work to come from that time and more shots of this work too! P.S its pretty big, those far strands of stones are longer than they look, its just the angle!
