Created by artist Kathy Holowko, Understory playfully reveals the details in the ecosystem of the forest floor, where unique plants, animals and fungi connect in a dynamic web of energy, life and transformation.

Known for her exploration of the relationship between people, nature, and urban spaces, Holowko’s work helps people to consider the world as a cyclical and shared habitat. Make a fluffy pom pom wattle flower, dress up in a mushroom hat and explore the detail of lichen in the macroscopic world of UnderStory, where everything is five times bigger than real life.
