Cast paper, kozo casting, and installation art about environmental issues. I'm studying mycology and making art about mycellium and mushrooms. I'm interested in myco-remediation of toxic soils, mycellim as a source for medicine, garment fabrication, packaging, and more. The beauty and fascinating life cycle of these fruiting bodies inspires my recent art.
