Fungus is an animated artwork by Bink Walstra, a part of the Nature’s Humanity collection. This piece delves into the notion of anthropomorphism, exploring how a fungal entity might evolve if it were to develop human-like characteristics. The artwork presents a masculine figure, embodying determination and courage. Walstra skillfully employs deep and vibrant colors, allowing the shapes within the piece to manipulate and affect the human structure in a unique way. Fungus, as depicted, seems to embrace its newfound form with a certain ease, enjoying the advantages that its sentient and enhanced capabilities bestow. It represents a fungi not just in its mere existence, but as a being that has evolved to experience and interact with its surroundings in a more profound manner.
