Sougwen Chung - Ecdysis - Slanted Studios

SOUGWEN CHUNG / Ecdysis

Ecdysis is Sougwen Chung’s immersive audio-visual installation depicting biological and architectural adaptation. 240 feet of tension-set rope hold 36 interlocking beams in suspension while animated projections dance across their surfaces.

For this installation, Slanted Studios worked with Sougwen Chung to create installation prototypes and code custom software. Slanted’s software allowed her to dynamically call up and affect her animations within the three-channel projection.
