Since my last post, I have gone mushrooms crazy. For my birthday I was bought the Mushroom at the End of the World book by Anna Tsing, an old observer guide to mushrooms and a little bloomsbury guide. I’ve been researching a trip to go foraging in Northern Italy in the Piedmont region and joined several mushroom forums to learn everything I can about growing. Quite fortuitously this exhibition at Somerset House started in Feb too Mushrooms: The Art, Design and Future of Fungi. Curated by Francesca Gavin the exhibition features a 130-year artists and designers including Cy Twombly, Carsten Höller, Beatrix Potter, Tom Dixon and Takashi Murakami. The exhibition celebrates the remarkable mushroom, and all the progressive, poetic and psychedelic wonder it evokes. I was really pleased to see Jae Lee Rhim’s Burial Suit in the flesh after seeing her powerful Ted Talk. 

Choose Love, always. Choose kindness, choose empathy, choose hope. Yesterday I got to see the Choose Love exhibition at Somerset House. It’s on till Thursday this week if you’ve not been, then go. 💖🎨#chooselove #printclublondon #exhibition #somersethouse #london #helperefugees #love #charity #awareness #the_neon_hunter #LEPhotography #photography #outandabout #blogger #project #tumblr #insta #neon #iphoneography #shotonaniphone #shotoniphonexr (at Somerset House) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0koMt9Ai52/?igshid=4ps1hdgdzorw
