Since 2018 I’ve been organising TransitionFOOD hypnosis-enchanted dinners. At that time I realised I had more joy creating food in the kitchen, touching, smelling, feeling the products from the market than I had at the studio working with toxic but cheap materials I had to protect myself from. I felt there was a dead-end in trying to create architectures where the public was supposed to open-up, become more porous, while I had to shut off my senses during the process of production of the artwork. Mycelium held the key to a pleasurable process, full of surprises, creating an intimate and sensorial connection throughout the whole growing of the artworks, and generating a material with unprecedented charisma and potential for connection.
First, a lot of patience, and starting to enjoy the feeling of not being in control (as opposed to inert, and chemical materials such as concrete or resins). At some point when this feeling became comfortable, I was always confident in the mycelium that it would create the perfect artwork in time for each exhibition. Collaborating with mycelium made me access an exhilarating feeling of letting go, replacing the stress that comes with public presentation and the growing stake of each art show.
I always felt that through my art I was channeling inspiration from elsewhere. Working with mycelium made it even more tangible, nurturing the feeling of merely being an ambassador of this network of life.
I am currently working on an approach that would make the process even more environmentally friendly, pleasurable, collective, ritualising the growth of mycelium temples as ways of strengthening the bonds a community can make with a space.
This process also reduces the costs associated with larger scale mycelium domes, in order to propagate mycelium temples and create sacred spaces for nurturing a feeling of interdependency in cities that often disconnect us from our environment.
I am looking for collaboration with artists and musicians to make these temples come alive, and play with the acoustic properties, the incredible atmosphere and energy that pulses in these Wombs of the Earth. Please get in touch!

MycoTemple celebrates the bonding power of mycelium, both physical and spiritual. This architecture harnesses the potential of this organism to grow temples, spaces for interconnectedness.On the Mediterranean coast, MycoTemple faces industries from the past. This mycelium dome is a seed for the future. It connects us to the earth and the cycle of life. This dome is a temple. Its purpose is to nourish that essential part of our being: our spiritual dimension.This adventure, lead by artist Côme Di Meglio, bridges bio-material innovation with craftmanship. To create sacred spaces, the artist unites with mycelium. In return this organisms deeply transforms him.
