This sculpture shows a tall, slender bronze mushroom rising from a smooth, dark lava rock, creating a striking contrast between organic form and volcanic mass. The mushroom has a narrow, elongated stem and a broad, flat cap with strongly textured gills, suggesting a gilled mushroom from an agaric family such as Agaricaceae. The weighty lava base and the upward thrust of the thin stem give the work a poised, almost columnar presence, as if the fungus were a delicate monument anchored in ancient stone.
