Scrap Wood Castles

Lars Vilks Creates Nimis, a Maze-Like Driftwood Structure

Lars Vilks has created quite a stunning and artistic visual masterpiece out of driftwood. The tower he created is called Nimis, and it goes along with a castle called Ar. The two of them create a maze-like intricate world of driftwood sculptures like no other.

When the Swedish government declared that the art had to be taken down, Lars Vilks had it declared an independent nation. The two breathtaking monuments are either reachable by boat, or by a 45-minute hike, making them uniquely inaccessible.
