M/OS(S)MOSIS | Embroidered wearable artifact, cotton embroidery floss and natural living moss on silk organza | 2022

This wearable artifact was inspired by my awakening to the magic of moss and to the transformative potential of its vegetal teachings in a time of profound socio-ecological uncertainty. Seeking to overcome artificial hierarchies and species divides through tactile, embodied practices and mutual learning, I delved into a state of osmosis: a tenuous and care-full multispecies co-becoming, grounded in a process of thinking-through-making.

M/OS(S)MOSIS was submitted as an entry to the Hand & Lock 2022 Prize for Embroidery and was awarded Second Place in the Textile Art Student category.
