Welcome

Welcome to the Dublin Coffman High School Sculpture Blog. The sculpture students have been studying the artwork of Andy Goldsworthy and have been tasked with coming up with their own sculptures that will change over time. Here they will be posting and commenting on their artwork. Be sure to check back periodically to see how their work is progressing.

Nature Sculpture


Day 1

I made my sculpture in my backyard, on top of a stone wall that's around the edge of our patio. In the summer and spring, very very tall weeds tend to grow in our backyard around the mulched areas. When they die in the winter they usually lean and bend over onto the ground, turning brown as they die. I chose to replicate the dead weeds with brown leaves and twigs. 



















Day 2

On the second day my sculpture is still there, though some of the smaller leaves have been blown away. One of the twigs has been displaced as well.


















Day 3

On the third day parts of my nature sculpture are there, however only about half of the materials remained. Most of the larger and dry leaves have been blown away, while some of the wet leaves have clung to the stone. The twigs have entirely been displaced, with none of them remaining in their original position.
