As the green movement continues to sweep the nation, the impact crosses over to plantscaping in some strange new ways….

Plantscaping Innovations From Outside The Industry

Finally someone figured out how to take a Huge Negative (Street Graffiti) and make it into Green Art and, more importantly, why weren’t we the ones to think of this?

Here’s the scoop from Inhabitat - a website for future forward design…

"In Brooklyn we’ve discovered ‘living graffiti’ — an idea which takes the idea of clean graffiti to the next level by creating street art out of living, breathing plants.

Eco-minded street artist Edina Tokodi is putting a new spin on green guerilla tactics in the trendy art enclave of Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

Tokodi’s site-specific moss installations of prancing animal figures and camouflage outgrowths are the talk of a local urban neighborhood typically accustomed to gallery hype and commercial real estate take-overs.

Unlike the market-driven art featured in sterile, white box galleries, the work of Tokodi is meant to be touched, felt, and in turn touch you in the playful ways that her animated installations call to mind a more familiar, environmentally friendly state in the barren patches of urban existence."

Inside or Outside, Think of Ways to Use This 

This harkens back to Girl or Boy Scout days.  A little milk, a few spores, and, voila, living microcosms. 

Or, just take the green sheet moss we get from the suppliers, shape it yourself, add some dried fungi and some aticks and pebbles, maybe even a feather or two. 

How Can You Apply This To Build Your Interiorscape Business?

For those of you who periodically present talks to elementary students, here is a Project. 

For those wanting to create a living piece of art in an interior planter bed, here is another idea.  Fabricate this green moss art on a plank of wood on a stake and you could even spell out the building name.
