Artist Spent One Year In The Woods Creating Surreal Sculptures From Organic Materials

In an extraordinary act of devotion to his art, sculptural artist Spencer Byles spent a year creating beautiful sculptures out of natural and found materials throughout the unmanaged forests of La Colle Sur Loup (where he lived with his family), Villeneuve Loubet and Mougins. He worked together with elements of his natural surroundings to create artwork that blends seamlessly with the environment.
Byles’ project is intentionally secretive – the only way you’ll see these work short of his photos is by going into the woods and finding them yourself. I imagine that coming upon such a fantastic structure unexpectedly in the woods is sure to be quite a magical surprise.
One of the most beautiful things about his work is its temporary nature. The pieces were not intended to last, and each sculpture will eventually be reclaimed by the natural environment that helped Byles shape it. This full circle gives the organic pieces a powerful poetic and philosophical touch.

This unique spa hotel floats in the remote Lule River in the Laplands of Northern Sweden, giving its guests the best seat in the house. The hotel’s design pays homage to the country’s forest, subtly giving the illusion of timber floating down a river. The main hub is circular, featuring a cut out in the center to create a mini bath opening directly into the river. The pool is kept at 39 degrees Farenheit. If that sounds cold, you’re absolutely right—guests can take a cold water plunge followed by a hot sauna, which is an old Arctic tradition. All features are available year round, even when the river freezes. Surrounding the pool are s...
