LEWIS H. LEUNG
Shortly after his 30-year career in visual journalism since 1993, he miraculously stepped onto this artistic journey that he has never imagined. He foraged edible mushrooms as a hobby, but the process of making spore prints for identification has taken over his curiosity to go further — making art.
Since the use of spores as a medium is rarely practiced in the art world, and 99% of the population has never heard of it. To him, it is a new frontier that is exciting and challenging.
The result of adding natural materials, roots or leaves, etc. can create a more authentic depth to the art. Then the captivating forms, patterns, and color of the mushroom spores have made the final piece totally out of his imagination.
He subsequently set up a home-based studio, Sporesart, in June, 2024. Yet, the artistic, surreal, and abstract art pieces have been well-received and often times in awe by art-fair goers, which based on his experience in many of the art fairs he has been participated in the last twelve months.
"It is an unusual medium, but it is unique and fun. I call it a 'sporestacular' journey!"
