Who is the artist/photographer who creates art solely with objects found in nature? He then destroys it after?

Julie W asked the question:


I learned about him in my fundamentals of art inquiry class, and i can’t for the life of me remember his name. Apparently he is an artist/photographer who creates these beautiful arrangements and sculptures out of materials found in nature. An example: he laid on a road while it rained, he then got up and photographed the image of his body outline. His pieces last long enough for a picture, but they are not permanent. His photography books are extremely expensive. If anyone could help me out, i would be so happy. I just cant figure out what his name is. THANKS!!!

    Well I’m not sure what his name is, but what you can do is look it up on Google. That will be more of assitance for you.
