Mushroom Nature Spirit Faerie Ring Portals

The Mushroom Nature Spirit Faerie Ring Portal installation is a sacred space for cultural sharing, in which everyday Amsterdammers of all ages will be invited to contribute. This as a celebration of our various cultural gifts quietly present in the city, waiting to be expressed in community in the form of song, a myth, a piece of music or a quiet meditation. The Faerie Ring also represents a wish for our city: a reference to a more sustainable future within a doughnut economic model; the act of coming together in community and presence instead of glued to screens inside our apartments; bringing traditional and nourishing practices to the forefront and encouraging sharing and dialogue; emphasizing equality, our shared humanity and our place within the ecosystem as a part of nature; and opening up a space for magic and enchantment in the inner city, a realm of creativity and imagination in which we can birth better stories for our future.’
