…blows my mind.
“movement, change, light, growth and decay are the lifeblood of nature, the energies that i try to tap through my work. i need the shock of touch, the resistance of place, materials and weather, the earth as my source. nature is in a state of change and that change is the key to understanding. i want my art to be sensitive and alert to changes in material, season and weather. each work grows, stays, decays. process and decay are implicit. transience in my work reflects what I find in nature.” – andy goldsworthy

ever since I saw the giant snowballs I’ve always like his work! What a happy find!
I saw the documentary on that artist and it’s truly amazing. I can’t even believe the time that goes into some of his work!
The “Rivers and Tides” documentary is absolutely breathtaking… there are few people so in harmony with nature. If you haven’t seen it, do so soon! It’s worth it!
