The writer used the theory mimesis by taking the kingdom fungi as a natural object that is copy to furnish discourse in review the creation of these artworks. The writer also used the theory of semiotics metaphors as a means of rhetorical choice in the process of semiotics between the two objects that became inspiration sources and also the theory of aesthetic in reviewing of aesthetic side either objectively or subjectively. The writer’s work would not be understood clearly without any a better understanding deeply about the classification of fungi and human survival systems, so that the three theories have an important role in the craft creation like Applied Art (Lamp) and Fine Art (Expression). Keywords: Kingdom Fungi, Heterotrophy, Parasitism, Commensalism, Symbiosis Mutualism.  Jamur merupakan salah satu makhluk hidup yang memiliki kingdom tersendiri yaitu kingdom fungi. Secara visual jamur memiliki berbagai macam bentuk yang unik dengan warna-warna alami yang menarik, hal ini memicu imajinasi penulis selaku creator untuk menciptakan sebuah karya yang menjadikan kingdom fungi sebagai sumber inspirasi. Dalam penciptaan karya dengan mengusung tema Jamur dalam Ekspresi Seni Kriya “Parasitisme: Sistem Bertahan Hidup Jamur Sebagai Metafor Sistem Bertahan Hidup Manusia” ini, penulis menjadikan klasifikasi sistem bertahan hidup jamur yang terdiri dari Jamur Parasit, Jamur Saproba, dan Jamur Simbiosis Mutualisme sebagai metafor sistem bertahan hidup manusia yang terdiri dari Simbiosis Parasitisme, Simbiosis Komensalisme dan Simbiosis Mutualisme. jamur yang bertahan hidup dengan cara menjadi parasit sama halnya dengan manusia yang bagaikan parasit dibumi. Dalam penciptaan karya ini, pada tahap eksplorasi, penulis mengkaji lebih dalam tentang objek yang menjadi sumber inspirasi yaitu jamur, baik dari segi visual maupun berupa wacana dan data-data valid yang mengulas tentang jamur sehingga membantu penulis dalam memicu imajinasi yang lebih luas agar mempermudah pada tahap pembuatan desain. Pada tahapan selanjutnya, penulis melalui tahap improvisasi dengan melakukan beberapa eksperimen hingga pada akhirnya penulis memutuskan untuk memilih batang pakis super sebagai media utama dalam perwujudannya dengan mengunakan teknik cetak resin sebagai media bantu dalam mengeksplorasi batang pakis yang memiliki motif dan tekstur yang menarik sebagai bahan utama dalam penciptaan ini. Untuk melengkapi wacana dalam mengulas penciptaan karya seni ini, penulis menggunakan teori mimesis dengan menjadikan kingdom fungi sebagai objek alam yang ditiru. Penulis juga menggunakan teori semiotika berupa metafor sebagai sarana retorik pilihan dalam proses semiosis diantara kedua objek yang menjadi sumber inspirasi penciptaan serta teori estetika dalam mengulas sisi estetik karya secara objektif maupun subjektif. Karya penulis tidak akan dipahami secara gamblang tanpa adanya pemahaman lebih mendalam tentang klasifikasi sistem bertahan hidup jamur dan manusia, sehingga ketiga teori tersebut memiliki peran yang cukup penting dalam penciptaan karya seni kriya yang berbentuk Aplied Art (lampu) dan Fine Art (Ekspresi). Kata kunci: Kingdom Fungi, Heterotrof, Parasitisme, Komensalisme, Simbiosis Mutualisme.
