Where it began
“Mycelium is an aspect of the world that has been present for millions of years,” says artist and co-founder of MycoWorks, Phil Ross, “It binds together everything that’s organic that we know about.” A pioneer in cultivating living materials for art and design, Phil began using mycelium in the 1990s as a medium for sculpture. Almost three decades on, Phil and his team of artists are now complemented by engineers, biologists, production specialists and material scientists in bringing the first Fine Mycelium™ material, Reishi™, to the world.
