133: Is the Mycology Community in Europe Truly That Inclusive?

Ask Flora Funga Podcast anything OR Leave a ReviewIrene Antonez is a multimedia artist and musician based in Prague. Her artwork features surreal, dreamlike, and often psychedelic imagery, with a strong focus on fungi, microorganisms, and the plant world. She is particularly drawn to the microscopic study of fungi, as well as the fields of ethnomycology, ethnobotany, and historical scientific illustrations. Recurring themes in Antonez’s work explore the consciousness and intelligence of nature, the interconnectedness of the micro and macro cosmos, and processes like metamorphosis, symbiosis, and "plant-thinking."Check out the amazing art that Irene made for my new Flora Funga LLC logoDM me if you want to go to Oklahoma Fungi Festival this weekend 10/12-10/13Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/d0bcbdbd80ae/irene-antonez-art-newsletterArt shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/IreneAntonezArtInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/irene_antonez_art?igsh=MWxtam5iMzV2M3oxaQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qrYouTube: https://youtube.com/@ireneantonez?feature=sharedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ireneantonezart?_t=8jgfizloQUr&_r=1 Zbiotics: "FLORA10"Drink ZBiotics before drinking alcohol-Alcohol produces acetaldehyde, a byproduct that your next dayNature DisturbedMother Nature is one weird ladyListen on: Apple Podcasts   SpotifySupport the showGoFundME If you like the podcast please think of donating to Keep the show happening $keenie19 on Cash App Follow my other social media sites to interact and engage with me:Email me to be on the podcast or inperson Interview: floraandfungapodcast@gmail.com FacebookInstagramTwitterTikTokYouTubePatreon --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Zbiotics: "FLORA10"Drink ZBiotics before drinking alcohol-Alcohol produces acetaldehyde, a byproduct that your next day SUPPORT THE SHOW: Join my Patreon for only $1/month [THATS only .03 cents a day!] ***I am an affiliate with ENERGYBITS (your daily a...
