The wooden stake on the LandArt trail near Bonstetten initially appears to be an oversized signpost. However, Hama Lohrmann's work is conceived as a thought experiment. The pointed stake stands at a crossroads and evokes the idea of human development: upward-directed, ambitious, but not necessarily linear. This is precisely why the deliberately crooked stake is important. Hama Lohrmann initially searched for a straight stake but ultimately opted for the irregular shape because it better reflects a development that can deviate from the "right path." This is complemented by the circle of collected wooden sticks on the ground.

The Bonstetten Land Art Trail in the Augsburg-Western Woods Nature Park is a 6 km circular route featuring installations by the artist Hama Lohrmann.

Hama Lohrmann says: “Land Art is an art form that touches all the senses, awakens the imagination, and helps us to rediscover and perceive nature and ourselves as part of it. The works consist exclusively of natural materials from the immediate surroundings. The artworks are unique and constantly changing due to the influence of time and weather.”
