Andrew goldsworthy

Andy Goldsworthy is a British sculptor, renowned in his field, that creates temporary installations out of sticks and stones, and anything and everything else that he finds outside. The son of a mathematician, Goldsworthy grew up working on farms before eventually getting his BA from what is now the University of Central Lancashire. "A lot of my work is like picking potatoes," he told the Guardian. "You have to get into the rhythm of it."
