โA stone is ingrained with geological and historical memories.โ Andy Goldsworthy

This is one of my favorite artworks that Andy Goldsworthy did. It shows how he uses his patience and persistence to complete this work. Even Though the work has collapsed many times, he still takes his time to feel and complete this artwork. I like how each line supports the stone and creates the motion. Also, the color feels dark in the stones, but lighter in the background. The texture feels rough and strong, like the trees and rocks in nature. The rocks in the circle form a pattern, with the variety of objects he used (stones and branches). Overall, I can feel how this artwork allows me to feel nature. I like it a lot.
