About Metamorphosis III Fideo-Animaasje En Dûns

Troch opnimmen fan animearre bylden út hjoeddeistich inktskilderij, stribbet dit animaasje en ynterdissiplinêr wurk nei in transzendintale ûnderfining fan 'e kosmyske krêft, in glimp yn' e kroes fan genesis. Enerzjies ferskowe en eksplodearje om sereniteit op in elektryske manier te meitsjen. Ljocht ûntstiet út tsjusternis, symboalysk foar geastlike werberte. Mei refleksje fan in earbied foar sawol de geasten fan Tao as it Sublime, fiert dit wurk de dynamyske enerzjyën dy't berte jouwe oan nij libben, nije planeten, en nije stjerren.
