The exhibition is open until 21/12/24, and again in January until the 18/01/25 ✌🏼
🍄 This is the first time I’ve worked with mycelium in my practice (most of the tiles in this piece are made of mycelium and substrate), and I'm becoming a little OBSESSED. Mycelium is the root structure of fungi, and spreads in expansive webs underground - connecting plants, and strengthening ecosystems. We’re much more dependent on fungi than we realise - the ultimate connector 💫
This work is on display alongside the diverse practices and artworks of @tiles.lewisham where my artist studio is. Bludge the last few days of work and check it out at @firstdraft_ !
