Sonja Hinrichsen’s art spans from video, performance, and installation to participatory and situational art, as well as environmental art. Known for her series of “Snow Drawings” she creates massive drawings on snow-covered landscapes using footprints. These drawings engage communities worldwide. Participants are guided by Hinrichsen, creating walking pattern systems with snowshoes.

“My work reflects on environmental concerns and addresses our (humankind’s) relationship to the natural world – as we perceive it and interact with it,” she writes on her website. According to Hinrichsen, modern society has become increasingly disconnected from nature.

“We have come to see our planet as a mine to extract the resources we need to maintain our extravagant life-styles, and as a dumping station for our toxic waste products,” she says. “I believe, however, to secure a “habitat” for future generations (of our own species as well as others) it is essential that we tune ourselves in with nature and re-gain greater awareness of our planet, understand it better and take better stewardship of it.”

Her art examines urban and natural environments through exploration and research. Her work process includes looking at indigenous as well as ancient cultures, whose life philosophies perceive mankind as an integrated part of nature, rather than attempting to dominate over it.

“I believe that through the means of art it is possible to point out the importance of environmental soundness – through speaking to emotion and passion for nature, and through unlocking an ancient sense of freedom and awe,” she explains.

There are a lot of different places on our planets and many don’t get to experience all four seasons. In Arizona, for example, it rarely snows, but when it does, it’s truly magical.

The snow has covered the usually dry Sonoran desert and transformed it into a proper winter wonderland. Locals and visitors cant’ get enough it so there are many photos on the internet these days. On them, we can see gorgeous scenes from the Grand Canyon and the Sonoran desert that look out of this world.

The cold period didn’t last long and the temperatures were back where they usually are this time of year.

Below are some photos and videos of this unique sight.

If you saw beautiful wild foxes in the woods, what would be the first thing you do? Take a picture, of course! This Dutch photographer started doing just that and her photos are only getting more and more beautiful with each take.

Meet Roeselien Raimond – or more specifically, her work. She fell in love with wild foxes back in 2010 when she first saw them. Since then, they are a great part of her photography work and the photos are truly magnificent. However, it’s all pretty unpredictable. As she says, “you never know exactly where they will show up, if they will show up and what they will be doing. Just when you think you know them, you realize… You know nothing.”

Scroll down and enjoy the magic.
