Transformation Daze @ Vernita Nemec E. AKA n'Cognita. 2005
- NEMEC Vernita, Transformation Daze, E. AKA n’Cognita, 2005.
This solo Transformation Daze was commissioned for an exhibition in Darmstadt, Germany, in their world famous gardens. Translating the theme of gardens into a Butoh performance, I am a caterpillar that becomes a butterfly, whicj morphs into a snake ? Layers of costume are removed as I finally morph into a snake that eats the apple in the Garden of Eden. In this image, I am still a caterpillar. The next time I hope to perform this piece with these costumes on a shore washed up with trash from our polluted waters… a 21st Century garden…
