nature

This tag gathers artwork built around the natural world more broadly than landscape alone, plants, weather, animals, and the small details easy to miss without looking closely. Nature has been a subject for artists for about as long as art has existed, since it never stops changing or offering something new to notice. Use this tag to find work that slows down and pays close attention to the world outside, whatever specific form that attention happens to take.
