Along with food and possibly a garden starter, the box and accompanying poster will act as educators on how to improve not only your personal life, but our entire society. The overall message we want to convey is that what is good for the individual is good for the whole.

My practice includes impossible thinking and an outreach for what has yet to be discovered in design solutions. I also have a strong appeal to nostalgia, futurism, and introspection in my work. With this I mostly work as a painter, designer, filmmaker, concept artist, and interior maker.
“This project is significant to my practice and everyday life in helping create a more efficient, sustainable, and enriched environment; full of radical thinking and experimentation to fight against the climate crisis. Mushrooms specifically, I believe are a stepping stone in making these radical changes happen faster.” - MJ

As a designer, I try to be experimental, always improving my thinking and design process. Everything I learn from my design I apply to my life, and vice versa, my work represents who I am, and I’m very passionate about who I am.
“More people need to see and understand what is going to happen if we keep living our everyday lives. The world isn’t going to fix itself, we need to expand the knowledge of the general public, while keeping a positive and optimistic view of the situation. Things like mushroom paper and boxes may be fun, but they are only a first step for people to understand the situation, which isn’t so fun.” - OT
