‘Mycelium’ is a mesmerising display of colour and light using thousands of thin fibre optic strands to represent an intricate mycelium network, often growing below our feet. Glowing mushrooms of different sizes and heights change colour while a mycelium carpet pulses and changes hues and intensities, as if the network is communicating with other plants and trees. The display uses a selection of IP65 light sources and different bundles of fibre, along with recycled plastic mushroom caps and carbon fibre rods which are staked into the ground only a few inches.
