Coucoun Metamorphosis
Coucoun is a multimedia installation that serves as a re-imagining of metamorphosis in nature, where insect larvae undergo a radical transformation into adult life. The key feature of this process is the development of wings, and as humans, we often liken this process to a profound, deep slumber from which one emerges a different being.
This video is one of the two videos that were part of COUCOUN. The root of the video clips and sound clips are recordings of nature.
