Land art
Land art, also known as earth or environmental art, is art that is made directly in the landscape, sculpting the land itself into earthworks or making structures in the landscape using natural materials such as rocks or twigs. It can also be art in which artists make artworks in an art space, such as a gallery or museum, by bringing in material from the landscape and using it to create installations.

Landscape
Landscape is one of the principal types or genres of subject in art from all cultures. The appreciation of nature for its own sake, and its choice as a specific subject for art, is a relatively recent phenomenon. Landscape has historically been confined to the background of portraits or paintings dealing principally with religious, mythological or historical subjects. Today, landscape continues to be a major theme in art with many artists using documentary techniques such as video, photography and classification processes to explore the ways we relate to the places we live in, and to record the impact we have on the land and our environment.

Lenticular
Lenticular art is a type of visual art that uses a lens to create images that change depending on the viewer's angle. The image is made up of multiple layers of curved strips that are interlaced called lenticules, and light is refracted through them in different ways. When the lenticular lens is placed on top of an image, it allows the viewer to see different images from different angles. Source: AWDB Team. AWDB highlighted artist: Suzann Victor. -
