DESCRIPTION/COMMENTARY

Hovering like witches around a fire, these fly agaric mushrooms simulate witches’ fabled social and ritual gatherings. They are photographed in Christmas colorways referencing the fact that these toadstools were dried on Christmas trees and are thought to be the precursors to modern-day Christmas decorations. Fly agaric by virtue of its very name references the idea of flying reindeer and levitating bodies.
