Ephemeral elegance: Simon Beck’s Majestic large-scale drawings

As winter blankets the earth with snow, artist Simon Beck seizes the opportunity to transform vast expanses of white into breathtaking works of art. Beck, armed with nothing more than a pair of snowshoes and an unwavering vision, treads meticulously across frozen landscapes to create intricate and sprawling geometric patterns. His large-scale snow drawings, often resembling mandalas or celestial forms, are both awe-inspiring and meditative, inviting us to marvel at their scale and precision. Each piece is a showcase of Beck’s dedication, as he sometimes spends over 12 hours in the cold, carefully plotting his steps to ensure perfection.

The ephemeral nature of Beck’s creations adds a poignant dimension to his work. These magnificent pieces, though painstakingly crafted, are temporary, subject to the whims of weather and footprints that may mar their beauty. Yet, it is this very transience that infuses them with a profound sense of urgency and wonder. Beck’s snow art not only highlights the harmony between human creativity and nature’s canvas but also encourages us to find beauty in the fleeting moments of life and the world around us.
