Medium- Brown to Black Mushroom Connection T-shirt

CONNECTION - This design is a celebration of seeking profound pathways of connection from within and around you. A celebration of interconnectivity. This design draws inspiration from the role of mushrooms and the intricate patterns of rug and carpet textiles. As a young child, I was deeply captivated by the intricate shapes and designs of the carpets I encountered in peoples homes and my own. I would lay on them for hours, lost in the patterns that seemed to stretch out before me like a map to a magical world. The Persian and Turkish styles were my favorites, with their mesmerizing swirls and curves and structured lines and shapes that harmoniously existed with each other . So I chose an old beautiful carpet design that I used as the grid to format this design. 

At its heart, holds the  power of connection - the connections we make in life, to nature, to each other, and to love. Just like the intricate pathways of mycelium that connect the natural world, this design features mushrooms that blend seamlessly into the map-like formats of the carpet textile I was inspired by, highlighting the way that maps and paths connect us to one another.

As you wear this design, may it serve as a reminder of the importance of building and nurturing connections in your own lives, just as mycelium does in the natural world.
