3D models

Fructifications

What happens when the forest enters the machine? This series of 3D models traces twelve fungal typologies from Chile—cap, jelly, star, cup—as they migrate into digital space. Neither replica nor simulation, each form becomes a proposition: a way of thinking with fungi, through code.

 

Here, the organic is not lost but reconfigured—rendered in polygons, yes, but still pulsing with the logic of rot, of emergence, of multiplicity. These digital fungi invite us to imagine new archives and new ecologies, where classification slips.

The models were printed in November 2016 with a resin+plaster 3D printer, but are now lost.
