This series explores the hidden architectures of life beneath our feet — the tangled undergrowth, mineral strata, microbial worlds and mycelial networks which quietly sustain ecosystems and, by extension, ourselves.
Inspired by forest floors, soil horizons, and the microscopic complexity of organic life, these works examine cycles of decay, transformation, and renewal as generative forces rather than endings.
Reclaimed and altered paper, paint, printing and textiles are layered like sediment, echoing geological time and the accumulation of lived experience. Fragments of pattern resemble cellular structures, spores, root systems, or unseen organisms, suggesting life at scales beyond ordinary perception.
Rather than depicting landscape directly, the series aims to capture it from within — an intimate immersion in the living matrix of soil, lichen and moss. Mycelial forms act as both reference and metaphor: networks of communication, mutual support, and interdependence that mirror human connection and inner worlds alike.
Microcosms invites you to contemplate the profound vitality of what is overlooked, reminding us that destruction leads to renewal, and that beneath apparent stillness lies a vast, collaborative web of life, of which we are merely a single thread.
