Andy Goldsworthy
After watching the movie on Goldsworhty and some of the things he does I was inspired to go out into the world and and create something. I found it very interesting how he uses nature to create large works of art that are very time consuming. Its amazing how he can see the potential for something such as a twig or a leaf and make it into something that that would most likely be impossible to create any other way. I am curious on how much time he averages on a project and if he has a job outside of being an artist. What I find very interesting is how he uses either circles or lines in almost every one of his pieces. He often stacks things in a circular pattern or is attaching straight lines to make a circular pattern. Most of his work seems to center around the idea of using a circle for the center of the work. I am curious if its because he believes that the circle is the strongest whether its most aesthetically pleasing, or whether he's just doing it on a subconscious level.
