About The Work
Hidden within topsoil, invisible microbial and fungal communities make sensitive sentient networks that connect forest organisms and regulate nutrient distribution among plants and trees. Fungi are largely responsible for recycling decaying matter into soil and eradicating pollutants from ecosystems; yet their life cycle defies our current understanding. Their ability to exist in states between life and death These gel pen drawings are meditative explorations of the subterranean mycelium hyphae and bacterial colonies inhabiting them. What can we learn from these vastly understudied life forms and their ancient networks of knowledge?
