Impermanent art, part two

"Andy Goldsworthy is an artist and photographer living in Scotland who produces site-specific sculpture and land art situated in natural settings. His art involves the use of natural and found objects to create temporary sculptural pieces that appear naturalistic and create stark contrasts with their surroundings. He works closely with form and color contrasts to produce works that are both striking and ephemeral.

"His media often include twigs, thorns, muds, snow, icicles, brightly colored flowers and leaves. For tools he often uses only his bare hands and found tools, although more recent works like the Moonlit Path and Chalk Stones have also used heavy machinery."


My Lady Friend and I watched Rivers and Tides again last night, so you're treated to a link today.
