Moss identification card deck

This card pack was developed for a moss walk for the Eco pedagogies Symposium 2024.  The walk traced a route between the Firs Botanical Gardens and Manchester Museum.  

In this iteration of the moss workshop, I discussed my emerging “methodology of moss” and the role of art as a perception-changing device. To develop the card pack I photographed each species of moss I found along the route and created a card for each one, including information on the numerous biomes encountered. These cards not only aid my learning and memorisation of moss species but also include prompts, instructions, texts, and readings that will enable others to facilitate their own walking and moss workshops in the future.
