Magic Mushrooms

I have recently become obsessed with mushrooms and fungi. Hidden under foliage, or emerging from otherwise inaccessible places, to me they are beautiful symbols of rebirthing. Peeking out from foliage or growing bravely on dead wood, they show us what regeneration really means.

They say fungi like the dark and moist places. This would hardly describe my studio, a bright eastern facing room in my home. Maybe this work is a reflection of the inward processes supported by social distancing.

The picture I posted is a work in progress. More to come…
