Land art or earth art is a form of art which uses items from the natural environment, such as rocks, sticks, soil and plants. Particularly large works are sometimes known as earthworks.
Land art came to prominence in the late 1960s and 1970s. The works frequently exist in the open and are left to change and erode under natural conditions. Many of the first works were ephemeral in nature and now only exist as photographic documents.
