In the summer art workshop at Tihany (Hungary) in 2012 the topic was Land Art. I was interested in the relation of the human and the nature, and mainly the question that why can any artis feels that he is able to make the nature more perfect of more beautiful with his human art? I felt that it is complete without this, and the early land art artists' radical interventions were about the subjugate of the nature, instead of create the Beauty, and I couldn't identify myself with these artworks.

So I created in the forest a 3x3x3 m big empty space. I 'cleaned' the plants away, cut some branches and made the flat perfect. With this gesture I opposed the human logic based beauty with the natural beauty.
