Memory Foam
An experimental dance film that charts the cyclical metamorphosis of a creature born from fluid, flowers, and flesh. As the creature learns its body through silk-like movement—crawling, writhing, seducing, and shedding, it becomes more self-aware, and undergoes a series of physical and psychological transformations: discovering its sexuality, wrestling with voyeurism, and gorging itself to grow a new exoskeleton made entirely of hair.
