FIONA SWAPP - Fiona Swapp - Botanical Artist

Ethobotanical artist Fiona Swapp is currently exhibiting at the Concourse Gallery in the Sir Ian Wood Building, Robert Gordon's University, Aberdeen.
On show is some of her visual research into Sphagnum moss.
The exhibition depicts a selection of microscopic and macro photography taken in order to investigate the structure and intricate details contained within Sphagnum moss.
Also on display is an infographic map locating some of the larger moss areas, the moss collecting depots in villages and towns of the North East of Scotland, and the communities involved with the collecting of moss during the First World War era. The moss went on to be prepared into war dressing to help the wounded in the battlefields during the conflict.
