Katya Sykes is an artist and researcher, whose practice entails a multidisciplinary contemplation on the entanglement of living systems, wherein human and more-than-human storylines coalesce. She primarily explores fungal-human relations through both sculpture and performance, reflecting a language that intersects ecological architecture and human cultural histories. By engaging with mycelium as a living medium, she observes spatial growth patterns of fungi as alchemical agents of change, leading observation in directions that trace textures of ecological and sociological matrices and their convergence with deep time ecologies, offering glimpses of a hyperobject in constant flux.
