INTERPRETING NATURE
 
MUCELIUM INSPIRED
 

Beneath our feet are the tiny myriad threads comprising the magical mycelium network which feeds carbon, minerals and nutrients, the source responsible for a tree’s energy, grandeur and longevity.

Mycelium is the means trees use to ‘talk’ to each other in a language human ears cannot hear nor our brains interpret.

Jocelin draws the exquisiteness of these unseen dynamics into her work, “Not every tree wants its story known. When a tree beckons, I am compelled to listen.”

Enchanted, she freezes a fraction of a tree’s life-time in a digital photograph. Layer by delicate layer she meticulously transforms the image to culminate in a silver and 22 carat gold-leaf embellished unique, thought provoking artwork that challenges perceptions.

 
Africa’s Wild Dogs Survival Fund, a registered PBO (South African Public Benefit Organisation). It was established by myself to aid those organisations working in the field throughout Africa with African Wild Dogs, a highly endangered species. All funds raised from the sale of these works go to the fund.
