Artist that work with decay

Well, when doing my art textiles essays on artists that work with decay,
I found that there where not many answers whilst I was searching
and that a lot just repeated themselves saying the same artist over and over such as Salavdor Dali, who only works with time decay like death and life not material decay which is what most people seemed to actually want.
So as I know how hard it is to find artists that work with decay on the web, for references for books to look for and reference in essays like myself, I thought I'd give you a small list of them.

So first one I though really helped me was a British contemporary artist called Helen Chadwick. She works with various mixed medias, such as rotten fruit, meat, urine, flowers and chocolate.
