"Spolia" absorb energy from an external force and deform elastically. As archeological tools at (de)construction sites, they form hidden testaments to political dependencies, ecosystem clashes, art in galleries, even office tower elevators. Input: strange simultaneity of icons that are immediate, available, and ready to be transformed. Output: remnants reorganized to(...)

Résumé:
"Spolia" absorb energy from an external force and deform elastically. As archeological tools at (de)construction sites, they form hidden testaments to political dependencies, ecosystem clashes, art in galleries, even office tower elevators. Input: strange simultaneity of icons that are immediate, available, and ready to be transformed. Output: remnants reorganized to serve architecture and its demands. We look back to the future and ahead to the past. We persist in building, digging, finding, collecting, assembling to produce meaning.

Résumé:
''Moss and Lichen'' is a celebration of the extraordinary biology, beauty, and resilience of two unassuming organisms. Endowed with unique abilities to thrive in extreme habitats, mosses and lichens defy easy categorization. Mosses, which are integral to the plant kingdom, and lichens, which are a kingdom unto themselves, colonize a variety of landscapes from rainforests to deserts to urban streets. Long neglected for lacking flowers, these organisms are now beloved for their significant role in maintaining the health of our world’s ecosystem.
