The New Herbarium

Informed by mycology and influenced by the inherent transformation of growing cycles, The New Herbarium, interprets the process of herbaria creation. The mushroom spore print, used to identify species based on spore color, is adopted in form and medium to create works on paper that explore mycorrhiza and photosynthesis. Mushrooms are used as food, medicine, and in the fabrication of consumer products, and in the New Herbarium, as a compostable art medium. I photograph the fragile works; archival inkjet prints available.
