MetaMorphosis is an interdisciplinary project that was initiated by artist and designer Jakob Kukula in 2021 and collaboratively developed with media artist Xaver Hirsch, composer Ben Meerwein and ecologist Esteban Menares. The project was conceived during the SOAM residency , where the team conducted extensive research on the habitat of insects in the region. As part of this endeavor, the team planted a wild meadow in the house's garden and orchestrated an artistic ritual that systematically documented acoustic and visual impressions of the site, culminating in an immersive audio-visual performance that incorporated various mediums, including live microscopy.
Commissioned by ROH/Symbiotic Lab.
