About the Art
An abstraction of a great oak tree and mycelium networks, ‘HYPHA'E’ is a permanent sculpture that utilizes specialized eco-resin and a unique engineering approach to span 2 floors.
A network of lights reacts to the flow of human traffic in the space, moving through the piece as if carrying information through the root system. Strict architectural and engineering standards needed to be met for this multi-billion dollar facility, including LEED platinum standards and RedList free materialities.
