6) David Nash

David Nash… An amazing sculptor! One of the greatest names of 21th century. Wood, trees and the natural environment in his creative world hitting once again, you can find yourself in which is a central theme of his works, as the relationship between man and nature… So impressive and so artistic. A different approach to carving; and also he makes sculptures which stay in the landscape. Like, “Ash Dome” is a ring of ash trees he planted in 1977.

“Walking Manzanita”

“Ladder” one of my favorite works of Nash, that was a wood sculpture by David Nash realised at 1989. “Talking trees” reminded me Nash’s works when I saw a photograph today on Photography section. It was (lgswaff)Dear Les’ one of photographs.
