Andy
Goldsworthy, who is a Scottish sculptor, makes fleeting masterpieces by
organizing leaves, sticks, rocks or whatever else he can discover outside.
Nature
is such a beautiful place. You will never discover something so
satisfying and delightful as nature and that is the reason individuals are
constantly instructed to look for the solace with respect to nature when they
are experiencing some trouble or difficulty. The chilliness that contacts your
skin with the breeze, the glow of the sunbeams that make you feel much more
alive and the stirring sound of leaves in a lonely but lovely surrounding will
fix every one of your sicknesses and torments in a supernatural manner and
nobody ever will do equity to its magnificence.
The
vast majority of Goldsworthy’s specialty is viewed as transient and fleeting,
making individuals see it as a criticism on the Earth’s delicacy. Somehow, for
Goldsworthy, the significance is increasingly confused.
“When
I make something, in a field or street, it may vanish but it’s part of the
history of those places,” he states in an interview where he discussed about
his artistic work.
“In
the early days, my work was about collapse and decay. Now some of the changes
that occur are too beautiful to be described as simply decay.
At Folkestone I got up early one morning ahead of an incoming tide
and covered a boulder in poppy petals. It was calm and the sea slowly and
gently washed away the petals, stripping the boulder and creating splashes of
red in the sea. The harbor from which many troops left for war was in the
background.”
