Exploring the Mycoverse

2019


I embodied the archetype of a scientist/collector exploring a topic that I’m an amateur in but at the same time fascinated by: the world of fungi. The work consists of photographic samples made with a macro lens by doing fieldwork in the forest on various excursions. The images later became risographs done by several color experiments that led to different outcomes. This accompanied by audiovisual footage, writing, and dried mushrooms which I grew in the period of this investigation. It can be seen more as an archive rather than a finite work, just as fungi this collection will grow, will die and reproduce itself.
