Environmental Graffiti

English artist Anna Garforth is one of many who are finding inventive uses for moss, creating a movement for environmental graffiti. The words above are part of a poem  whose four verses are being inscribed in walls in various parts of London.

Part guerilla gardening, part graffiti, the environmental graffiti movement aims to enrich neglected public spaces with the kind of work that finds inspiration in Andy Goldsworthy's site-specific art installations. I prefer moss as material of street art over spray paint any day.
