Oil on canvas with Russula spore print
20 inch round
2024
An explosive release of spores and mycelial texture emerges from darkness, bringing together the intimate and the cosmic. Origin draws from the visual parallels between the human iris, mushroom spore prints, and the branching growth of mycelium observed in a petri dish.
Built through layers of oil, texture, and organic markings, the painting places Russula spore prints beneath delicate filament-like forms, creating a surface where biological patterns become abstracted into something both familiar and unknown.
Origin considers beginnings as moments of emergence: where the microscopic and the vast meet.
