This piece is my sculpted thread version of the highly toxic and poisonous fungi - the Amanita, found throughout New Zealand, particularly amongst pine forests. Easily recognised with its red cap and white warts.
Featuring: Amanita muscaria (fly agaric)- various growth sizes, as though they have been freshly dug out of the soil.
Every fungi I create are meticulously studied and copied from a real specimen, that has been photographed by myself from locations all over New Zealand.
Each mushroom is carefully pinned to white perspex, and encased in a clear acrylic box like a preserved specimen.
This measures:
Height: 32cm
Width: 32cm
Depth: 10cm.
Ready for hanging straight onto the wall. Each piece comes with its own signed certificate of authenticity.
