If not an hongo \/\/ Si no es un mushroom<\/i>, begins with an investigation of a biological occurrence native to Guatemala: an abnormal growth that occurs on certain trees in response to a parasitic mistletoe. Often mistaken for some kind of mushroom, these intricate woody tumors are collected and sold as decorative curios. As I questioned guest\/host dynamics in relation to parasitism and hospitality (and my own role as a visitor) I made a series of concrete sculptures that engage and respond to architectural details throughout Yvonne. Opening the week of the U.S. inauguration,\u00a0If not an hongo<\/i>\u00a0looks for ways to live under threat, finding a model for necessary resistance that fosters the growth of something beautiful.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
