Phyllis Ma (b. 1987, Guangzhou, China) is a Chinese-American artist based in Switzerland. She graduated from Columbia University with a major in Visual Arts.
Her ongoing series, Mushrooms & Friends, features foraged and cultivated fungi, often in arrangements with flowers, food and animals. Beyond photography, Phyllis often collaborates with mycologists, cultivators and foragers to identify and better understand the fungi she encounters.
Photos from the Mushrooms & Friends series have been exhibited in the US, the UK, Germany and Switzerland. Phyllis’s work has also been published in National Geographic, The New Yorker, The Guardian and other publications.
Open to commissions, licensing and interviews.
