Nils-Udo (born 1937) is a Bavarian artist who has been creating environmental art since the 1960s when he moved away from painting and the studio and began to work with and in nature.
Even if I work parallel to nature and only intervene with the greatest possible care, a basic internal contradiction remains.
sometimes when i go for a walk i look at the sky and realize that i really love earth & nature like i just get this really nice feel. i love it
Extravaganza Televisione, Kenny Scharf, 1984
