Mushroom Forest
Nature Alone is Antique,
and the Oldest Art a Mushroom
Taiwan's mushroom farming is marked by a long history, from the introduction of the shiitake mushroom in the Japanese Colonial Period, to the white mushroom that was popularized in the 1960's. With new inventions, continuedly improved technologies and equipment, mushroom farmers in Taiwan creates a glittering colorscape: artist Cheng Tsung FENG designs a large artwork masterpiece featuring Taiwan's six top rainmaking mushrooms. Each species contains its own passcode and a custom description. The key to unlocking their secrets might be yours if you are game for an adventure!

百菇森林
這是為台中世界花卉博覽會（Taichung World Flora Exposition）所創作的裝置藝術，藝術家范承宗以竹編和燈籠的傳統工藝，將台灣最受歡迎的五種香菇製作成一座百菇森林，人們能夠走進其中，從這些被放大數倍的特徵來認識這五種香菇，更能從他們身旁的資訊瞭解它們在台灣的產地和飲食故事。
