This temporary exhibit was held few years
ago in the National Museum of Nature and Science. It was a fun exhibit and informative in same
time, l learned a lot about fungi, how common they were around how much our daily lives were affected them.
Based on a manga, Japanese comic and
cartoon titled Moyashi-Mon, this exhibit showed the scientific nature of the
fungi as well as relation to our society.
The largely characterized fungi figures
filled the exhibit space to visualize how common they are around our living
environment. Disney land is one way to
sink into the
cartoon world and this is other way to do so.
Real fungi |
I think I liked both….

Real Fungi, too |
これは数年前に国立科学博物館で開催された展示です。この展示は菌類の事を知り、如何に私たちの身の回り溢れているかがわかる、良く出来た楽しい展示でした。
マンガ「もやしもん」をベースに、菌類についての科学的な側面と、私たちの社会との繋がりまでも見せていました。
菌類を大きくキャラクター化して展示空間を埋め尽くし、菌類が私たちの生活環境に如何に沢山存在するかを視覚化していまし
た。ディズニーランドがマンガの中に入り込む世界ならば、これはもう一つに世界です。
Manga fungi, how our living environment supposed to look like from them |
どっちも好きですけど…。
