Almost every one of us has done something similar to what an artist does at least several times in our lives. Simon Beck, namely, drawings in the snow. But, if our such creativity was limited to the production of snow angels and the writing of the name of a loved one, then Beck creates real art in this way!
Recently we are on the site Culturology. RF talked about the large-scale drawings from Sonja Hinrichsen, created by her while walking on untouched snow. Simon Beck is doing a similar job. But his work is even more ambitious, impressive and complex.
While painting his paintings, Simon Beck does not use any special tools and materials. For painting, he does not need brushes, paints, pencils, ink, or anything else - only snow and himself.
Beck turns his leisurely walks in the snow into acts of creativity. After all, he does not walk along random routes, but along a predetermined path. And the result of all this is the most real paintings, which are not ashamed to be called "art".
Moreover, unlike the same Sonja Hinrichsen, Simon Beck creates not two-dimensional, but three-dimensional images. In any case, it seems to the viewer that they are voluminous.
It takes about ten hours to create one such picture. Moreover, unlike other artists, Simon Beck has no room for error - fresh snow does not forgive even the slightest deviations from the original plan. A small fail, and hours of work are useless.
Moreover, the lifetime of works of art from Simon Beck rarely crosses the two-day mark. The first strong wind or snow destroys these creations. But, looking at such pictures, you very well understand all the illusory nature of life, art and beauty as such.
