Lars Endel Roger Vilks Lanat (born 20 June 1946) is a Swedish artist and activist whose drawings of Muhammad resulted in at least two failed attempts by Islamic extremists to murder him.
He also created the sculptures, Nimis and Arx, made entirely of driftwood.
The area where the sculptures are located was proclaimed by Vilks as an independent country, "Ladonia".
