Andy Goldsworthy: Citations en anglais

“Ideas must be put to the test. That's why we make things, otherwise they would be no more than ideas. There is often a huge difference between an idea and its realisation. I've had what I thought were great ideas that just didn't work.”

“My work comes first, reasons for it follow.”

"Residency on Earth" in Art in America (April, 1995)

“Movement, change, light, growth, and decay are the life-blood of nature, the energies that I try to tap through my work.”
