Andy Goldsworthy Sculpture Quotations

I am not a performer but occasionally I deliberately work in a public context. Some sculptures need the movement of people around them to work.

The main source of my income is through the commissions of the large-scale works and big sculptures, the projects.

I think that any sculpture is a response to its environment. It can be brought to life or put to sleep by the environment.

My sculpture can last for days or a few seconds - what is important to me is the experience of making. I leave all my work outside and often return to watch it decay.
