Bioffiti on brickwall

Bioffiti is a street art project using alfalfa sprouts, in a growing medium, to paint on the street walls as a means of expression. The methodology for the process is simple. The sprouts are soaked in water for a day. Then added to wheat paste, in small batches. 
Test sprouts: they are alive! A large paint brush is used to apply the wheatpaste without he sprouts to a surface. The sprouts will most likely need to be applied with several coats to make them sticky. They need to be sprayed with a water mister for the following day. The sprouts usually take between 1-3 days to sprout fully. The top most image is a composite of what an ideal sprouted bioffiti piece would look like. Due to the rain over the last few days, the test wall failed. Check back here for documentation of actual locations. 10.10.05
