Andy Goldsworthy is a British a photographer, as well as a sculptor. Goldsworthy often uses things such as icicles, leaves, stone and other materials of nature. Most of his work is momentary, and very sight-specific. Photography plays an essential part of his work. As Goldsworthy puts it, his work ''grows, stays, and decays.'' he finds photography important so that he can capture his work at the peak of perfection before it crumbles away.
I really enjoy Goldsworthy's work. The way he alters nature to create a work that will do what the rest of nature does, decay, is fantastic. I find that extremely interesting that he can create something, knowing it will inevitably be destroyed.
