SELLEST OSAST
I loved talking with Reece Brice, whose mushroom sculptures turn plastic waste into something magical. Each piece is a single bottle, transformed by heat and imagination into organic, glowing forms—like a forest of mycelium breaking down the past and growing a new future. His installations, lit from within with fishing line ‘roots’ and dancing light, feel alive, almost breathing. Reece sees plastic not as trash, but as a material waiting for its next life, and his mushrooms are a poetic reminder that repair is possible—if we just learn to listen to nature’s quiet genius.
