"Art materials" - that's paint and paintbrushes, crayons and colored pencils, canvases and paper...
OR - "art materials" could mean anything and everything!
French artist Myriam Roux uses lots of natural materials in her pieces, some of which are relatively small and can be displayed indoors - like, in a museum - and some of which are larger-scaled land art installations.
Here is a smaller piece:
Land art is also known as Earth art, environmental art, and Earthworks. The materials used in land art tend to be the materials of Earth - rocks, soil, water, plants - the materials found in the place where the art piece is built.
Which brings up a point: land art is site-specific. That means that it is built to take advantage of the topography and "vibe" of a particular location, as well as the materials. A land art piece built in a specific pond couldn't be built in the ocean, desert, or steep-sided canyon, for example. 
Many land artists use assistants or volunteers to build large pieces.
Land art tends to be temporary, because the materials collected from the environment to be used in a piece often break down with rain and sun, and return to the environment!
Today is the closing of the Seeds of Life exhibit by Myriam Roux in the Museum of Basketry, which is located in Cadenet, France.
