Andy Goldsworthy is a British artist, born on July 26, 1956, known for creating ephemeral, site-specific artworks using natural materials found in the environment. His meticulous installations, often photographed, reflect the beauty of nature and the transient nature of his works. His unique approach has made him a prominent figure in environmental and land art. I first discovered his work online scrolling through my phone and thought that it was very beautiful and satisfying. I think this could be useful for my photos because I want to do something that is circular but that is also aesthetic like Goldsworthy’s art.
Eadweard Muybridge was a British-American photographer and early pioneer in motion capture and photography. Born on April 9, 1830, in England, he is known for his groundbreaking work in capturing motion through sequential photographs, which laid the foundation for modern motion pictures. Muybridge’s photographic studies of animals and humans in motion revolutionized the understanding of locomotion and had a profound impact on the fields of art, science, and technology. I first found his work through DX when researching for ideas for passing of time. I like that his photos have a film like effect, where you can see the motion passing by.
