Queer Encounters in the Mycoverse

Workshop + Pop Up Museum

New Delhi & Bengaluru, India | 2022, 2023, 2024

Queer Encounters in the Mycoverse is a series of workshops that shifts dominant perspectives by exploring the concept of monstrosity through mushrooms equally monstrous and beautiful; drawing lines that connect repulsive toadstools to gender non-conformity and sexual deviance, and engaging in multi-species narrativization.

The workshop series features a pop up 'Myco-Museum' and a 'Queer Sensorium'.
