Ephemeral Works: 2004–2014 is a collection of works by British land artist Andy Goldsworthy. Born in 1956, Goldsworthy is known for his approach of creating sculptural works that are deeply rooted in place and time using natural objects, and for his dialogue with the landscape itself. This book features over 200 works created around the world between 2004 and 2014 using ephemeral natural materials such as leaves, ice, stones, branches, rain, and shadows. These installations, which appear for a moment and then disappear, are recorded as photographs and presented to us as traces of time. With each turn of the page, the book draws attention to the cycle of nature, where creation and destruction are repeated, and has the power to reexamine the meaning of the "place" in which we stand. Goldsworthy's unique tranquil worldview is unfolded, condensed with his perspective on coexistence with nature and finding beauty in the flow of time.
