'Metamorphosis'
is a collaborative arts project between
The North Circular and Between Man & Beast
featuring
Lily Cole
Based on an original concept by Lorna Love, and inspired by a combination of Kafka's Metamorphosis, experimental acid trial videos of the 60s, William Boroughs, and the evolution of life.
The North Circular is an ethical knitwear brand employing home-working grannies (and one man) to produce a handmade collection with wool from Izzy Lane Sheep Sanctuary rescue sheep.
The project was produced by Little Yellow Jacket, and the collaborations with Barry Lewis (additional cinematography and microscopic life) and The Bardo Lightshow (projections and liquid chemical reactions) took the project further into the ethereal realms of cutting edge science/arts.
