"When frogs dream, lichens smile. Ecological connections were explored anew. Artists recorded conversations of small creatures. People sat fascinated in flower meadows. Children laughed in the forest with knobbly mosses and chatty ants."

Disover my virtual exhibit of #BiodiversityShrines - about finds in a fictional future: https://www.cronenburg.net/biodiversity/
It was a real exhibit, now saved online.

A hanging collage in green, white and orange tones with natural finds. The most important parts of this abstract collage are wooden sticks (one with a bright orange lichen), a real lichen with embroidery stitches in silk yarn, a small porcellaine frog and a historic illustration of water plants.

The zoom on the abstract collage shows the two wooden sticks and the embroidered real grey lichen on a background of textile scraps and intuitive embroidery. One stick is lemon tree without bark, the stick with bark is cobered with a bright orange lichen. This colour is repeated in the stitches on the real grey lichen.

I don't like to take photos of lichens when they are dry or in full sunlight. But in drizzling rain and light fog, as of today, they show their most beautiful colors:

It was the first time I found the Brown Beret Lichen (Baeomyces rufus) on a rock instead of on soil or gravel.
And when I took a closer look at the photo, I noticed some “hairs” all around this lichen, especially to the left of it. It turned out that these “hairs” are also a type of lichen, but so far I’m still very unsure to identify this hairy lichen.
