'Poetics of Soil: Fly Agaric I' in the Observer

“The most spectacular work in the show concerns this secret labour.

This flowing network twinkles like a highway by night, glowing with miraculous colours and sending up the life force into a mushroom above, which in turns sheds its spores out across the air – altering the world’s weather.
