A page composed of and by mycelium, its topography shifts with temperature, moisture, and time, making legible a writing practice that is always in flux. Rather than preserving knowledge, the work foregrounds transformation: growth and decay as modes of inscription.

In this mutable archive, language is not fixed but alive, reminding us that meaning is continuously metabolised by more-than-human worlds.
