A study exploring fungi, their fascinating shapes, colours and textures and a close up look at their intricate structures.

Continuing an exploration of ingredients and texture in my personal work I was drawn to the beauty and complex structures of mushrooms.

Fungi are fascinating creatures, interesting not just from a culinary stand point where they are highly prized and sought after but biologically and ecologically as well. Oyster mushrooms are capable of cleaning up oil spills which seems almost at odds with their beautiful and delicate appearance.
