Metamorphosis is inspired by Ovid, Kafka, nature and transformation. It takes form as a series of typographic artworks and accompanying story exploring letterforms, language, and the crossover between the digital and the analogue. As a phenomenon, metamorphosis resides somewhere in the margins between art, biology and magic: a strange meeting between creativity and scientific process. From the ancient poet Ovid to Franz Kafka, it’s a subject that has fascinated artists and writers for thousands of years — perhaps because it speaks directly to the creative process itself, invoking the mutations, evolutions and adaptations that any idea takes as it grows into its form. Our take on the subject connects all of these threads, investigating the allure of metamorphosis and the idea of creativity as an exercise in transformation.
