Offset lithograph on 300gsm Saunders Waterfort natural white paper // Richard Long’s Untitled from the Artists Against Torture portfolio is a limited edition lithograph that uses a series of green footprint impressions to create a spiral-like pattern on a natural white paper background. The footprints are arranged in a precise, methodical pathway, giving the image a meditative quality that contrasts with the intense subject matter suggested by the portfolio’s title. Known for his land art and exploration of natural forms, Long’s use of footprints speaks to both the human presence and the idea of a journey, perhaps symbolizing resilience, movement, or a pilgrimage toward justice. The red circular stamp at the top adds a subtle focal point, grounding the otherwise ethereal composition.

What is Earth Art?
Earth art, also known as Land Art, emerged in the 1960s and 70s as part of the conceptual art movement. It involves creating artworks by sculpting the land or constructing structures in the landscape using natural materials like earth, rocks, or twigs. These works are often large-scale and emphasize the relationship between art and nature.
