Documentary, :- Rivers and Tides:-Andy Goldsworthy Working with Time

A film with Andy Goldswort hy.
Directed by Thomas Riedelsheime.

Andy Goldsworthy is a renowned land artist from England. His passion for nature and change has made his works stand out brilliantly in the art world. Goldsworthy aims to help people notice nature once again and ponder all of its magical mysteries. By creating sculptures made of all natural materials and constructing them in their original environment, Goldsworthy is able to observe the effects of time in nature. Time and the notion of being temporary are aspects of life that the environment and every human has in common. Time links all life, Goldsworthy's ephemeral sculptures help reinforce the importance of understanding the reality of birth, life, death, and rebirth.

Documentarian Thomas Riedelsheimer shows us Andy Goldsworthy as he creates art in natural settings using natural materials such as driftwood, ice, mud, leaves, and stones.

Riedelsheimer takes us to Goldsworthy's home in Penport, Scotland, and to a French museum, but the emphasis of the film is on observing Goldsworthy at work.

"art for me is a form of nourishment."

Goldworthy builds basic forms which take sometimes larger risks and achieving greater depths of complexity, often at the very edge of failure. Many of his efforts are intended only to last a short while.
for example, :-icicles frozen together at night and it melt in the morning with sunrising.and second example, "beach stones balanced atop each other and left for the ocean waves to tack."

Goldworthy’s art is deeply connected with the flow of nature and time. He creates his art with nature and it is destroyed by other forces of nature and time. The art shows that in nature, energy is always conserved and flows from one form to another.

“energy that is running through, flowing through the landscape.”

He trying to understand the nature of the place and the materials he is working with, working hand in hand with natural objects, bringing out of them something that the ordinary eye normally would not observe or take in.

Andy Goldsworthy has chosen nature as his subject. But he doesn't describe nature or celebrate it. He joins it and collaborates with it. He enlists nature in his schemes as co-author and at the same time follows nature, waiting for cues, letting it lead him where it will, hoping it will reveal something about itself that he can add to his already abundant knowledge.
