Making a hat out of Reishi Mycelium.
Bacterial cellulose plaque featuring the creator of Nata De Coco.
Mimicking cave paintings with CRISPR and fluorescent red Ecoli.
This piece is conceptually rooted in my current thesis practice of making holes and exploring tranparencies.
Using bacterial cellulose, cotton twine, and natural dye to mimic decaying skin.
A series of bacterial drawings reflecting on cleanliness and fear of contamination.
Knit a Sweater, ecoli drawing
The piece consists of bacterial cellulose, grown from G.hansenii cells, with an image in cyanotype and formed onto a baby doll. It’s a memorial, both thinking about the children and babies in Gaza and also the children who have been impacted by floodwater.
Bacterial drawings of E.coli were used to create short animations tracking the growth of cells and allowing the texture of the cell cultures to take the form of motions of rain and notions of my homeland.

By using symbols that have been found in art since the days of cave painting and materials that have to some degree existed long before the modern day, my piece attempts to make connections with the artisans of the past
Exploring the tree of life form with modern materials and contexts.
A hat grown with bacterial cellulose, and dyed using Jacquard MX dye.
A mycelium milk jug, and a sculptural interaction between mycelium and metal.
Combines the bacterial cellulose and brussel sprouts branch to recreate a new plant.

For this project I was thinking about our cultural relationship to death and decay. I wanted to create a headstone made from mycelium to make a less permanent marker for graves that decays with time. This was also an experiment to try to form text with mycelium. This project did not work the way I initially imagined and I demolded it too early due to time constraints.
