Terra Culture, 2025.

Terra Culture is an exploration of terra-biomes — symbiotic bodies of flora and microfauna, intimately connected by underground fungal networks.

'

Audiences will encounter an immersive space, where interaction with living sculptures invites sensual encounter with the artist’s terra-biomes to reveal our parallel and synergetic existences. The exhibition will also provoke a visceral self-identification, uncovering the human state as its own multi-species biome.

​

Over two years, this project has evolved through collaborations with ecologists and computing researchers in conjunction with sculptors and fabricators, ultimately leading Tainsh to create portals connecting us with more-than-human intelligence.
