Architecture of Breath is a model city grown from mycelium nurtured on waste coffee, tea and paper. Mycelium sequesters carbon, is biodegradable, and exemplifies principles of the circular economy. The work reimagines the urban environment as a living system—grown, not built—in rhythm with nature rather than against it.

A multidisciplinary artist, her research driven work is informed by the tenacity of nature and respect for interconnectedness of all life forms. The intersection of nature and technology is explored in various bodies of work that reference the urban landscape, seascape and cosmos. Collaboration has always played a pivotal role in Belinda’s work. Seeking input from colleagues, she embraces diverse perspectives to enrich her practice. This collaborative spirit extends to working with nature, through for example, growing her own materials - in particular mycelium.
