Artwork is usually the product of something that has had much thought put into it, and this has never been more true than with the Walter Mason Land Art series.

The talented artist “has an affinity for pulling things apart and then putting them back in to place,” according to kuriositas.com. The result is a perfectly orchestrated mess of [natural objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/highwood-installation). My favorite piece from the Walter Mason Land Art pieces has to be the leaves with the [tiny cut-outs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fragmenti). The placement of the leaves makes it look like a whole object, but a closer inspection will reveal how each one complements the other to create the perfect shape.

Check out the Walter Mason Land Art series to see the beauty of nature that can sometimes be overlooked.
