This vase was inspired by the mushrooms that grew at the foot of the trees around the park when the conditions were conducive for their growth.
The mushrooms grew in clusters resembling people huddling together having conversations with one another. This was in contrast to the social distancing measures which were enforced at that time. The fear of the unknown and extended periods of isolation resulted in heightened levels of anxiety and stress.
This serves of work reminds the viewer that humans are social beings and must maintain strong family ties and interpersonal relationships for mental and physical well being.
