As we know, artists use all sorts of materials to create.  However Korean photographer Seung-Hwan Oh has taken this to an all new and awesome level by storing the film for his photographs in a warm and wet environment to encourage fungi to grow.

It’s not an exact science, however, as apparently only one out of ever 500 frames of medium format color reversal film turns out properly so it’s a rather expensive and time consuming creative process.

But as they say, hard work pays off.  Check out some of our favorites of his mold photos below!
