This oddly-terrifying immersive
art piece was created in a forest over three years!

Created across a three year period leading up to 2020, each piece from artist Antti Laitinen's series Broken Landscape feels like a shift in dimensional space. He uses the forests of Scandinavia as his canvas, where trees are shifted using a clever combination of cutting and supporting to alter their form in ways that feel unnatural. It invites conversations about humanity's impact on the environment through art and letting nature take over
the artist's design vision. On the one hand, Laitinen uses the bushes as visual elements; on the other hand, he lets us see things which would normally remain out of sight. By cutting holes into the bushes and forming circles by bending the branches, he lets us look either through the bushes or straight into the forest. The overal shape of the work is memorable, balanced and absurdly beautiful.
