Susannah Collins Fungiform; cross-section Cotton and Polyester thread95 x 60 cm$1200 Fungiform; cross-section examines the interior of a fungal body through freehand machine embroi dery. Thread is used as a drawing tool, tracing the organism’s internal shapes from the inside out, revealing patterns that are usually tiny and overlooked.The work forms part of Lichenform, an ongoing series that scales up small, often unnoticed organisms to invite a sense of attention and awe. Across the series, thread becomes a way to think about resilience and adaptability - echoing how fungal and lichen forms endure, connect, and remake themselves beneath the surface.
