works of art i know


Andy Goldsworthy
rock
british

my first impression:
when i first saw this sculpture the first thing
i noticed was that he was able to make something
look round with very rough surfaces. i like this
sculpture a lot because you can see how the shape
has been put together because of all the lines in it.
another thing that i liked about this was that all
the rocks were different sizes and that makes it
look a lot more interesting.

what i have learned:
Andy goldsworthy lives in a quarry. that is were
his house is located. he makes these egg shaped
sculptures with pieces of whinstone and sandstone
that have been left in the quarry. he is very interested
in the journey that the stone has been through.
