The Design

About Metamorphosis III Video-Animasie En Dans

Deur animasiebeelde van kontemporêre inkskildery te inkorporeer, poog hierdie animasie en interdissiplinêre werk om 'n transendentale ervaring van die kosmiese krag op te wek, 'n blik op die smeltkroes van genesis. Energie beweeg en ontplof om kalmte op 'n elektriese manier te skep. Lig kom uit die duisternis en simboliseer geestelike wedergeboorte. Hierdie werk weerspieël 'n eerbied vir beide die geeste van Tao en die Sublieme. Dit vier die dinamiese energieë wat nuwe lewe, nuwe planete en nuwe sterre aanleiding gee.
