Fungi, Body, Living Things is an environment-responsive installation that explores the quiet interdependence of living systems. It reveals the often-unseen relations between fungi, human bodies and the microorganisms that move through and around us.
On a digital screen, organisms appear as drifting particles, subtly altered by air, light and ambient conditions, while mycelium sculptures hold the space in apparent stillness.
Together, these elements invite passers-by to slow down and sense themselves within a shared, fragile ecology — where even the slightest environmental shift reverberates across bodies, species and space.
