They were first on our planet and grew so high they were considered trees, prototaxites, giant spires of life poked from the Earth. They still exist to this day & serve us more purpose than we can possibly imagine. In the wild the mushroom helps the tree extract minerals and water from the soil, in exchange, the tree supplies the mushroom with sugar compounds. In society, they make a great nutritiously delicious dinner yet they also have the capacity of healing people from depression & anxiety…. and last but not least, they can be heaps and heaps of fun. It seemed rather logic, to dedicate a mural to such a little yet great existence amongst us.
