The artistic journey of Pandwe is a vivid tapestry interwoven with threads of discovery, education, and growth. Among their most evocative creations is a piece featuring three types of live moss pinned visibly to a cork board with radiant yellow pins. This delicate yet enduring work was born from times Pandwe spent as an educator, instilling the values of academic exploration and intellectual growth in their students. It reflects the constancy of growth, symbolized both metaphorically and literally, as the moss thrives over time, embodying the persistence of life and learning in all directions. 
 
Created in Miami, Florida, and prominently featured at Art Basel 2015, the piece invites viewers not only to admire its aesthetic but to experience its multisensory allure. The textures of the moss, the invigorating freshness of the air, and the profound symbolism invite contemplation of nature's synthesis with human endeavors. This work holds a mirror to the interconnectedness of our existence, reminding us of the unity between growth in nature and growth in thought—a recurring theme in Pandwe's artistic explorations.
