Artist Anna Garforth’s Mossberger project examines how we think about graffiti. Must graffiti always be composed with toxic paint? And must it always be either a gigantic mural or cluttered eyesore?

The Mossberger project is a part of YCN Live, a two-week long public and participatory art initiative in London. Garforth used moss to illustrate a verse from an Eleanor Stevens poem on a brick wall near Clissold Park in London.

Is eco-friendly graffiti the public art of our eco-conscious future?

Being interested in public art and ecology, it led me to thinking about sustainable grafitti. I collected a common moss that grows well on brick walls and glued it to the wall using a mixture of natural (bio active) yoghurt and sugar. (crosshatchling)
