Fungus Kingdom studios is located near the back-side of Gnesta, Sweden, where the wind at times brings wafts of the near-by sewerage works. It is the creative space of a small group of artists working across the fields of sculpture, sound, alchemy, costume and theatre. When methane met the spark of this creative cluster the idea was born to make art in relation to municipal sewerage. The meeting with waste researchers further fueled this process. This is the first Fungus Kingdom studio collaboration.
