Can I start with a medium?

El Anatsui - Emerging Fault Lines

I found a Ghanaian artist who works in metal. I am fascinated by the "fabric" quality of his sculptures/paintingbeyondpaint pieces. I'm interested in playing with the diversity of metal in a narrative format.

is the grocery store goldsworthy?

So, I want to work in a way similar to Andy Goldsworthy. Only while he works to become in touch with the energy and beauty of nature I'll be working in department and grocery stores. Obviously my intent is a little different than Andy's, but maybe there is something to be gleaned from his asthetic?

I like the idea of going into my chosen environment and manipulating the materials that are naturally there and then leaving the work of art to be discovered by a shopper or shelf stocker.

what do you guys think?

This is just an example

wow that was way to easy, I can't believe I didn't figure that out but thanks.
