Andy Goldsworthy: a selection

I first learned of him as a maker of utterly beautiful cairns and other exemplars of drystone masonry. Some examples follow.

He often builds a "beehive-teardrop" sort of shape.



A near-parabola in undressed slate.



What a craftsman.

A transitional piece showing what he might do with other media ... color/shading gradation for the win

when you see the scale of it, it puts things in perspective. we're tiny and inconsequential. just clouds, just the most insubstantial of things, can devastate our whole society. and we keep doing everything we can to make things worse.
