Shapes and curves in a natural environment

The forest is a key setting in Basque culture and it is the space that one day challenged Ibarrola, who had to give a great deal of thought on how to express his canvases on a three-dimensional background of such symbolism, namely, a forest of totems. This artwork is a good example of Land Art, a creative trend that dates back to the end of the 1970s and whose purpose is to transfer art to nature, using the landscape itself as the artist's frame, support and raw material.
