Spore Print

Brief Description: This is a linoleum print of two charismatic mushroom species, Amanita muscaria and Boletus edulis. In my print, I explored the theme of multiplicity by highlighting the reproductive process of fungi by showcasing spore print patterns. Beneath the soil, I included mycelial structures to draw attention to the connective bodies of the organisms.

Spore Print will be published in Issue 35.4 of Collegian.
