Land Art

His scientific qualifications in environmental science, forestry and land use, which have given him a deep knowledge of landscape and its underlying landforms, geology and soil drew him inevitably to the whole field of Land art / Earth art / Environmental art / Site-specific art (often referred to as 'Art in Nature' in continental Europe). The pieces he contributed to this movement allowed him to combine both his scientific and artistic disciplines. As well as some small pieces he has contributed major pieces to several major Irish and European land art and environmental art symposia and projects. In these works he has combined earthworks of soil with additions of stone or large found boulders to develop an integrated whole
