Patrick Dougherty

Article Abstract:

Patrick Dougherty is a fine artist, who has built a steady artistic career out of weaving and snagging sticks, saplings, vines and other skinny parts into gargantuan nests, cocoons and woodland architecture. Unlike other artists who draw materials and inspiration from the landscape by turning to earthworks and temporary sculptures, he made his surroundings the habitat for his art.
