Ying Ang – Fruiting Bodies
Artikelnr.: 9781922545442Visual artist Ying Ang reimagines the mushroom as both a biological form and feminist metaphor – an emergent, generative force that challenges dominant narratives of fertility and the female body. She examines how the fetishisation of fertility shapes cultural perceptions of women, nature, and reproduction, questioning whether growth and abundance must always serve a reproductive imperative. The fungal model is a form of fertility that is rhizomatic rather than hierarchical, collective rather than possessive, disruptive rather than obedient. Just as mycelium persists unseen beneath the forest floor, connecting and shaping ecosystems, women continue to shape society in profound ways. Auteur: Uitgever: Perimeter Editions
