Our artist this week is ANDY GOLDSWORTHY. Mr. Goldsworthy is a British sculptor, photographer and environmentalist who produces site-specific sculptures and land art situated in natural and urban settings. This is a fancy way of saying he creates sculptures using things from nature and puts them outside! Sounds easy enough, right?!
Watch this video to get a better understanding of Andy Goldsworthy and his art.
- Create an original piece of land art
- Collect materials (twigs, leaves, branches, rocks, etc) from nature
- Arrange materials. Designs can be radial (arranging around a central point and are often arranged symmetrically, with parts evenly balanced) in nature or can create a picture of something
- Photograph the finished piece
