About the art
Artist statement
The Concentrica series- a group of pieces inspired by a particular saprophytic fungi forming on dead wood. Once cracked open, the fungi reveal distinct light and dark rings forming in a concentric pattern emanating from its center- humbling in its uniformity and measured approach to the slow restructuring of ligneous matter into nutrients for the woodland floor. The different pieces in the series have all been manipulated to reflect upon this process of decay and change.
