here is a take on one of the earliest forms,
Dutch
artist Veerle
Coppoolse examines the life cycle of a butterfly in a handcrafted
zoetrope built from finely cut paper.
the animation brings the metamorphosis of the extraordinary insect to life,
presenting its transformation from cocoon-wrapped caterpillar to a butterfly in flight,
the completed machine above, the grey and white paper animation is a mock-up for a larger
model Coppoolse is currently seeking funding for on the Netherlands-based
crowdfunding site Voordekunst, She hopes to build a cocoon-shaped machine
that will spin guests around the paper work to create an animation, rather than
producing movement from the zoetrope itself, You can follow the process behind
Coppoolse’s human-powered metamorphosis attraction on Instagram, not sure that I like the spinning guests much, but there it is.
