“Experimenting with inoculated hemp, Nora casts intricate sculptures, drawing inspiration from the resilient nature of mycelium. Nora’s connection with mycelium runs deep as she explores its growth patterns. Her recent work focuses on sculptures that interweave personal ancestral trauma, contemporary cultural challenges, and the collective efforts of women to revive threatened cultures. The elegant mirroring of these themes by mycelial networking adds a profound layer to her artistic expression.
What captivates Nora most is the collaboration with mycelium as a living microorganism. This relationship has prompted her to expand her artistic perspective, making room for the unique expressions of her silent collaborator. In her artistic journey, Nora invites us to witness the enchanting dance between her creativity and the resilient, organic beauty of mycelium.”
