Description

The Fungus Among Us is a digital risograph trading card collection, consisting of 22 different mushrooms divided into three categories: the good, the bad and the trippy. I've always been fascinated by mushrooms and their relationship with humans and life in general. From the harmless edibles to the deadly beautiful species and the special mushrooms filled with knowledge to share, fungi have been turning death into life dating way back over a billion years. Their intelligence isn't only shared wwith humans and other animals, but amongst themselves being capable of long distance communication and other characteristics which make them that much intriguing. In the end, this collection is just a way I found to externalize my fascination in the best way I know how, and I hope I can share a bit of this with you. Spec ies: Flammulina Velutipes (Enokitake) Type: Good Location: The Enoki was first cultivated in Japan, but are pretty common around East Asia and North America where they can be seen growing on rotting wood, such as dead elms. Trivia: The Enokitake are best suited for both raw and cooked applications such as simmering, blanching and boiling. They have been cultivated for hundreds of years and are prized in Chinese, Japanese and Korean cuisine, and are believed to reduce symptoms associated with intestinal issues, blood pressure and liver disease due to being rich in vitamins and minerals. All images in this collection are highly texture 3000x3000px PNGs, created using only three colors (Cyan, Magenta and Yellow), with tonal variations and other colors coming from halftones and color overlay in order to maintain the stipulated color limtiations.
