"Metamorphosis (Performance in the Park)" by Monika Weiss is a composition for live voices and choreography of movement. The artist invited and selected both trained and untrained vocalists, with whom she worked individually in preparation for this ephemeral voice and slow movement performance. Focusing on the inner experience, participants and audience members are asked to refrain from speaking during the performance.
