This cocoon, suspended from a tree in woodlands of Arcozelo, in
northern Portugal, was part of Art Nature Fest which was held in
March 2013. It is the work of
Jaime Filipe, an inspiring land artist who has been creating
beautiful natural art in Portugal for some seven years. The
cocoon is the first venture away from working in stone, a material Jaime has a
particular affinity for but no less than the beautiful sensitivity he expresses
using ivy tendrils.
You can watch a short film of his work with
stone
arches in the video below and here you can see more pictures
of Jaime's
land art, including the cocoon.
