This page links to work made by Walking the Land Associated artists who are working individually and also collaboratively on tree related projects including We are Mycelia.

We Are Mycelia is a group of projects which collects together projects that illustrate examples of bringing together cultural and biological perspectives of trees and which is a response to mycelial networks as explored in Louis Schwartzberg’s film, Fantastic Funghi about which he said:

“A giant takeaway that I got from making the movie is that community is nature’s way of survival, it’s nature’s operating instructions. It’s a blueprint under the ground that we could model not only from a biological perspective but a sociological and cultural perspective. We have a shared economy under the ground that’s not based on greed, but based on the idea that everybody benefits when ecosystems flourish.”
