"Champinou N°250603" debuts a new series exploring "utopian ecology" amid environmental crises. Set in a damp, vibrant forest of mutant fungi, the work introduces Pinonou—a mysterious, anthropomorphic organism that is neither animal nor plant. Through intricate mixed-media and hand-applied beadwork, the piece captures a fragile yet resilient world born from evolutionary adaptation. It invites viewers to reflect on biodiversity and our delicate relationship with an ever-changing nature.
