Stone Mycology

   Enigmatic
Hard rock
Fungal mimic

A bout 100 million years old, two separate sandstone concretions have served as North American landmark attractions in central Kansas. These extraordinary structures seem to confront logic and resemble giant petrified mushrooms. Covering the stems are names, numbers and inscriptions dating back to the eighteenth century. Carved into hard rock, random graffiti ideogram messages communicate forward in time.

“Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day”
- William Shakespeare
