Ice Sculptures by Andy Goldsworthy

By Jonathan Shih









Andy Goldsworthy is a British Land Art artist known for his ephemeral works made from natural materials found on site. Since the late 1970s, he has created ice sculptures by fusing icicles with snow, water, and even the warmth of his hands. These delicate geometric forms interact with light and melt naturally, often lasting only hours or days. Photography is essential to his practice, capturing each work at its most vital moment, as Goldsworthy views natural decay and disappearance as integral to the artwork itself.
