Mother's Therapy (Out of Print)
|
$52.00

Psilocybin is a naturally occurring hallucinogen produced by around 180 species of fungus. Artist Mathias de Lattre developed an interest in hallucinogenic mushrooms as they might constitute an alternative to the psychiatric treatment of his mother. She was diagnosed with bipolar disorder twenty years ago, and the drugs prescribed to her paradoxically heavily degraded her health. And the interest then led him through prehistoric times, mycology and medicine, from the painted caves in Southern France and traditional medicinal practices in the jungle of Peru, to the scientists researching psilocybin in London and Zürich.
