Beschreibung
Mushrooms & Friends is a photography zine featuring mushrooms from a Brooklyn organic mushroom farm and the forests of Upstate New York. These fungal specimens appear in fantastical landscapes, with their macroscopic details enhanced by dreamlike arrangements. Bathed in technicolor lights, each mushroom evokes a clandestine personality bordering on the majestic and the playful. The second installment of Phyllis Ma’s Mushrooms & Friends expands on the photography of foraged and cultivated mushrooms in phantasmagoric settings. Familiar gilled mushrooms are featured alongside spongy, stalkless, and club-like fungi. The collection is then juxtaposed with visceral props—a sliced orange powdered with turmeric, purple daisies on green sugar, the veiny texture of a cabbage leaf—and transformed into otherworldly, Dr. Seussian assemblages.
