The discipline of biomimicry. Takes its name from the
greek words ‘bios’. Meaning life. And ‘mimesis’, meaning to imitate. Thus biomimicry involves the study of nature’s designs. And mimicking them. To solve human
challenges. Or simply put innovation inspired by nature. So pinpoint a need. And aim to resolve it. By mimicking nature.
UK designer Anna Garforth has gone above and beyond green-washing. To create a truly
biodegradable. And all natural graffiti. With “Mossenger” she’s created
living. Breathing. And sustainable outdoor art. Fashioned from a common
moss. That thrives on brick walls, She carved the moss. And glued it to the wall. With a mix of totally
biodegradable ingredients. As the moss grows. It will begin to spread
out. And the words themselves. Will literally spread across the wall. And melt into a field of green.

Eager to hear your thoughts. Feedback. Input. And tales. Of innovation. Inspiration. And play. Especially re-use. Re-purpose. Re-make. Or re-imagine techniques. That can be included in the SkillsLog.
Warmest Regards
