LENSE BASED ART
"Our bodies are repositories of our memories and experiences– not just in our minds, but also in the fibers of our muscles, in the expressions of our faces, in our movements, in our rhythms. The shifts in this piece reflect body rhythms: background (eye blinks), journal (respiration), images of travel (upper left, daydreaming/theta brain waves), nature (upper right, deep sleep/delta waves), family/friends (lower left, problem solving/beta waves) and random memories (lower right, meditation/alpha waves)."
I believe this applied to Metamorphosis because of the body. We grow, change and every 2 weeks we even shed our outer layer (skin) to renew itself. We constantly change and grow in different ways - transforming into something ever so slightly different. We are born to slowly but surely die, too (depressing fact of the day ha). We develop wrinkles, we age. We are constantly changing. Sherri Cornett's Lense Based Art piece shows our skin; our wrinkles; our muscles and blinking. Nature, family, friends, memories. Everything that regularly and frequently changes on a regular basis therefore supporting metamorphosis. I like the style in which she has made this Lense Based piece because I think it's a very spiritual piece. It's very unusual and makes you think in depth, which was indefinitely her intention.
