The Mushroom Series

The Mushroom Series began with naturalistic forms crafted from earthenware and clay slips, reflecting the quiet wonder of the natural world. Over time, the work evolved into a more symbolic and expressive exploration—embracing a psychedelic sensibility with playful nods to Pop Art. The large wall installation, composed in mixed media, captures this transformation in spirit and form. The wall pieces from this series are sold out.
