Mycelium network is a bespoke installation which is created on-site. It represents the intricate root structure of mycelium which thrives underground, hidden beneath our feet.

Beneath forest floors, mycelium forms vast interconnected webs that allow trees and plants to exchange nutrients, signals, and information. This installation visualises that unseen intelligence. Fibre-optic strands radiate outward in branching formations, mimicking organic fungal pathways. The illuminated lines gently pulse and shift in intensity, suggesting the quiet transfer of energy occurring beneath the earth’s surface.

Thousands of colourful animated fibre optic strands pulse and sparkle with various light intensity as if its alive and communicating with other organisms around it.
