Goldsworthy Wall: Stones - Trees

 This Andy Goldsworthy wall at Storm King Art Center is 2,778 feet long and used 1,579 tons of fieldstone.

It takes the longest sinuous path possible on the edge of a regenerating woodland, goes through a pond and then turns into a straight line through a field, ending up at a highway. It has a lot to say about inclusion and exclusion, creating relationships and beauty.  Oh, and change and death.
