Chrysallis

2011

Vestia Rotterdam developed the idea “Kus en Sloop”. Five apartments that need to be renovated were decorated by artist, to become a temporary hotel. We did the interior of one of them. For us it was a opportunity to sketch on actual size, because it had to be done in 10 days.

A chrysalis (Latin chrysallis) or nympha is the pupal stage of butterflies. A caterpillar in his cocoon.

“Chrysallis” is about making a space within a space. Ribbons of cloth link the walls with the ceiling and the floor, like a cocoon. The furniture in the apartment is wrapped into this cocoon.
