I am a failure of a green thumb. I have had no success in keeping the moss green and vibrant. I figured that much of the issues I was having was because inside of my studio was too dry. No matter how many times I was able to water it the moss was always dry the next time I would come back to it. So to fix this problem I talked with a biology professor about using the greenhouse on campus to store my moss, then I would also have better access to it.
My efforts were in vain though. Even with it being in a more convenient location and me visiting it even more often it has discolored, dried, and shrunk. So this will just need to be excluded from the show and I'll have to revisit it at a later time.
I most likely will not be creating a larger piece because that would be for one expensive, but also a colossal waste of time for me considering. Good thing I did a smaller study first! Studies are important.
