Falling asleep with your computer on your lap will put a damper on typing and finishing the artist of the day duo you had planned. The second of the two artists my undergraduate teachers loved to show in class. I have viewed the "Rivers and Tides" film several times and every time I view the film I am still amazed at his ability to create these works using nothing but his hands and the materials he finds. With few exceptions being the permanent sculptures that utilized machine tools.
At the conclusion of each work Goldsworthy takes care in photographing each work to build that ethereal quality. His goal with his work is to discover and and fully understand nature by working directly in and with it. The lines, circles, windows, and curves invite the viewer to look deeper into the nature to discover what lies beneath.
