Embracing the Unfamiliarity

By exploring the interaction between plastic structures and pink oyster mushrooms, this piece highlights the resilience and adaptability of nature. Fungi, often working unseen beneath the surface, play a vital role in sustaining ecosystems, with the occasional emergence of mushrooms offering a glimpse into their hidden world. The plastic forms, etched into the canvas using wood burning, symbolize human disruption, while the vibrant growth of mushrooms reflects nature's enduring capacity to transform and reclaim. The paintings, inspired by images captured various growth stages of the mushrooms during a collaborative cultivation process, explore themes of coexistence and the profound, often unseen, work of fungi in maintaining ecological balance.
