Magicicada

Magicicada is a three-part animated cycle constructed with found natural objects, molten cicada exoskeletons, LED lights, dead insects, and lichen beds from the Moravian countryside. The series’ production mirrors the cicada brood cycle of 17 years, an emergence period synchronized to mathematical regularity for survival.
