From the Ground/ Sing a Polyphonic Song

This project invites us to explore mushrooms as a lens to view alternative forms of existence beyond the capitalist framework, emphasizing fungi's role in ecosystems and as metaphors for interconnectedness and resilience in a world full of uncertainties. By engaging with our senses and oral traditions, we aim to uncover overlooked aspects of life and challenge our perceptions of progress and coexistence. Focusing on urban environments, it seeks to reveal the hidden potentialities of living in our everyday spaces, encouraging a reconsideration of our relationship with the natural world and highlighting the possibilities for more symbiotic forms of living.
