One of his snowballs is outside of the oil company BP's HQ. They are meant to melt and show the dangers of global warming. ]]> 2016-06-07 15:15:39 UTC https://padlet.com/bpressman_2017/dta8aohqpiy8/wish/113958648 Mathematics Inspiration   bpressman_2017 https://padlet.com/bpressman_2017/dta8aohqpiy8/wish/113959591 Most of his works play with geometry and symmetry. This is not hard to believe because his father was Allin Goldsworthy (1929–2001), a former professor of applied mathematics at the University of Leeds. ]]> 2016-06-07 15:21:56 UTC https://padlet.com/bpressman_2017/dta8aohqpiy8/wish/113959591 Farming Inspiration bpressman_2017 https://padlet.com/bpressman_2017/dta8aohqpiy8/wish/113961216 Starting at the age of 13, Goldsworthy worked on farms and thoroughly enjoyed the repetition of the work. 

"A lot of my work is like picking potatoes; you have to get into the rhythm of it." ]]> 2016-06-07 15:33:05 UTC https://padlet.com/bpressman_2017/dta8aohqpiy8/wish/113961216 Breaking the barriers between art and nature, reality and imitation and people and their lost connection to themselves.  bpressman_2017 https://padlet.com/bpressman_2017/dta8aohqpiy8/wish/113963854 2016-06-07 15:50:01 UTC https://padlet.com/bpressman_2017/dta8aohqpiy8/wish/113963854 bpressman_2017 https://padlet.com/bpressman_2017/dta8aohqpiy8/wish/113964629 2016-06-07 15:54:53 UTC https://padlet.com/bpressman_2017/dta8aohqpiy8/wish/113964629                           Oak Leaves      bpressman_2017 https://padlet.com/bpressman_2017/dta8aohqpiy8/wish/113964688                                      1987]]> 2016-06-07 15:55:24 UTC https://padlet.com/bpressman_2017/dta8aohqpiy8/wish/113964688 Art can die. bpressman_2017 https://padlet.com/bpressman_2017/dta8aohqpiy8/wish/113966481 Goldsworthy challenges the idea that art lives forever.
