Spawning in Forests, Figures Pose as Human-Sized Fungi | Colossal

Nestled in the thicket of bushes and trees, a cast of curious figures resembles a variety of fungi. Crafted by Riitta Ikonen and photographed on film by Annie Collinge (previously), the symbiotic project aims to nurture the relationship between human beings and fungal species.

Disguised as human-sized mushrooms, a troupe of models rest on leafy forest floors, sprout beyond green tufts, and stand upright against fallen tree trunks that would serve as a home to respective species. Each elaborate costume is constructed from upcycled materials, strengthening the project’s nod to sustainably connecting with our surrounding environment.

“Elegant stinkhorn” (2022)

Ikonen’s relationship with fungi stems from foraging in her early childhood. “Our whole family was in the forest for what seemed like ages as a child, and it didn’t take long to realize we’d be staying until every basket was filled,” she shares.

You can find more from Ikonen on her website and Instagram […]
