  Rosenberg collects leaves Tuesday on the Architecture courtyard. Rosenberg said the yellow leaves were the most difficult to layout due to its light tonalities. (The Shorthorn: Rasy Ran)  The architecture junior spent almost five hours without breaks collecting and laying leaves in an organized and colored pattern Tuesday on the Architecture courtyard. Rosenberg was inspired after watching a film about British artist Andy Goldsworthy in Introduction to Architecture class earlier that day.“Goldsworthy didn’t create the colors, he worked with what was out there,” Rosenberg said. “He basically went into nature.” Goldsworthy’s temporary nature installations include broken pebbles laid fashionably in a spiral, a one-piece icicle wrapped around a tree and various gradients of leaves snaking through the ground.  Architecture junior Martin Rosenberg nears completion of an impromptu construction of leaves in a circle Tuesday on the Architecture courtyard. A British artist named Andy Goldsworthy inspired Rosenberg with his temporary installations involving found objects in nature. (The Shorthorn: Rasy Ran) Communication technology senior Pam Kisielewski watched and helped Rosenberg collect yellow leaves near the end of the temporary installation. “It’s a good example at utilizing nature to create an abstract canvas,” Kisielewski said. Rosenberg said he plans to leave it in the courtyard until it’s destroyed. “Artists always give or take,” he said. Views: 455 | E-mail
