Dark Sides of the Moon • Spore Print Artwork made with mushroom spores on mushroom paper

This art piece titled “Dark Sides of the Moon” was created with mushroom spores on paper made out of mushrooms. They are not prints or copies, each one is unique.
Everything other than the frame was made, or foraged, by me.

I grew the mushrooms for the spore prints myself, the mushrooms used for the paper are turkey tail or reishi mushrooms that I foraged in the wild myself and turned into paper.

Artwork is about 4in. by 6in. and the frame measures 9in. by 11in. with a 1.5in mat surrounding it.
Frame is a black distressed wood pattern.

Each art piece contains real mushroom spores, these are not prints or copies.
If you choose to change the frame be very careful not to touch the spores.
They are sprayed with a light gloss sealant to keep the spores in place but any firm pressure will disrupt the pattern of the spores.
