over ten years, with the project "sporées et mycéliums", Anouck
Durand-Gasselin is attempting to reveal what could be the "expression of
the forest". She is creating "spore-images" or
"mycélium-images" with the fungi complicity. This project has been
nurtured by several scientific disciplines and when she met the pedologist
Laurent Rigou it took another direction toward a stronger relation with the
whole ecosystem and the various interactions of the fungi with the environment.
Laurent Rigou is leading us through the first layers of the soil, where the
mycelium is developing, telling us about the alchemical power of mushrooms.<span></span></span></p>
