Grass Art

The World

You’ve heard of black and white pictures, but how about green and yellow? Artists Heather Ackroyd and Dan Harvey use live grass as a photographic medium. Living on Earth’s Maggie Villiger reports on how they create their unique photos, and how collaboration with grass scientists is lending durability to their work.
