Hi, I'm Asfah Hamid, a mycelial enthusiast who is a little lost and a lot uncertain...
My practice 'Mycelial Polyphonies' delves around the idea of mycelium being the silent architect, with a decentralised structure. Mycelium is polyphony in bodily form. Each of the voices is a hyphal tip, exploring a soundscape for itself. Although each is ‘free to wander’ their wanderings can’t be seen as separate from others. There is no main voice. There is no lead tune. There is no central planning. Yet, from this organic interplay, emerges a mesmerizing form, revealing the inherent beauty of nature's orchestration :)
