cocoon is a new work in development by 2024 Artist-in-Residence Ariana Speight which journeys through metamorphosis defined as a transformative transition, and is a continual introduction to the inner workings of self through the shifting of form. With a multidimensional and interactive framework incorporating storytelling, [love] notes, questions/queries, movement, and stagnation, cocoon uncovers what hinders and what supports during the process of emergence.
