Nimis

The weather gods promised some sunshine and we decided it was time for a visit to the nature reserve "Kullen" that is located on the Northwest tip of Skane. My main reason to go there was to visit the country of Lalandia, where the Artist Lars Vilks built a giant driftwood sculpture called Nimis!! It is built illegally on a Naturepreserve, the authorities wants to tear it down and years of legal battles has taken place between the Artist and the authorities. Prompting him to sell the sculpture to various individuals like the famous artist Cristo. His last stance was to proclaime a soverign state called Lalandia in order to ensure the sculpture gets to stay!
