Andy Goldsworthy's Artwork


After reviewing some of Andy's art I believe that he does his art more for himself than for any one else. He said that he really feels himself when he can just go into the forest and make a piece of art. I think his style of art is very original in that everything used is from the earth in the form it was originally made. But also the way he can take things and use them to create masterpieces. What I also like is the fact that everything he makes will eventually become apart of the ecosystem once again and you would never know if that stick for example used to be a piece of art. I especially liked in the River and Tides exhibit the use of icicles to create that curved back and forth design and how he stacked rocks in an egg shape by the shore and then the tide would eventually wash them all away. He is definitely very creative and draws attention to the ecosystem letting people know that man and nature can live together without damage or destruction of our environment.
