A new piece of art is now on display at outdoor public gallery Sidmouth Wallspace in the Ham East car park.

Created by photographer Bob Reynolds, Sidmouth Fungi is described as a "magical, mysterious ethereal work highlighting the beauty and diversity of locally found fungi" and "taps into the magnetism of mycology - the biological study of mushrooms".

Bob, who lives in Sidmouth, is an associate of the Royal Photographic Society and a member of the Sidmouth Photographic Club.

He said: "With each trip, the challenge of locating, identifying and photographing [fungi] is exciting and rewarding, I hope that through sharing some images that others can see and appreciate the positive qualities of the humble mushroom."

Sidmouth School of Art's latest billboard also coincides with the start of the Sidmouth Science Festival, which is hosting a 'fungi hunt'.

Sidmouth Science Festival Organiser Dave Bramley said: "It is great to be collaborating with Sidmouth School of Art, in this case bringing science and art together, a powerful combination raising awareness, improving knowledge and learning about the properties and beauty of fungi through the photographers lens."

Sidmouth Wallspace is a collaborative project between Sidmouth School of Art, Sidmouth Coastal Community Hub and David Shrigley. It is funded by Arts Council England with support from Sidmouth Town Council.

This piece was part of a collaborative project with Sidmouth Photographic Club which "focused on people and place", mentored by artist-photographer Robert Darch.
