  • NV Your sculpture seems to be part of the cycle
    of nature. The tree started with seeds scattered
    to the winds. The tree grew. And its limbs fell
    to the ground. You picked up the branches in
    Scotland, arranged for them to be flown here, and
    put them on the ground again. Is the cycle now
    complete?
  • Goldsworthy That cycle is important. The way I
    make a piece is very close to the process of
    growth. The sculpture grows in the place. It is
    not fabricated elsewhere. It is not made into
    components that are fabricated elsewhere. As
    you've seen, building it is a process of
    growthlog by log, piece by piece, cell by cell.
    To say that the cycle has reached its finish is
    perhaps wrong. Maybe it is in as finished a state
    as the tree was. Eventually, despite all the
    efforts at preservation, there will come a point
    when it decaysas with everything, including the
    buildings surrounding here. I don't know how long
    this will take. But for this momentfor a long
    whileit will hang in that space.
