Terminal Physical Space presents the entire Metamorphoses series: Michael, Britney, George, Biggie and Oprah. This project was shot at Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum. It documents transgressive and playful interactions that occur as people perform and stage encounters with “celebrities”.

I’ve got really complicated feelings about Michael Jackson. Last year, I spent a full day in front of his wax figure at Madame Tussaud’s in New York which resulted in Metamorphoses (Michael). Watching people act out their fantasies and fears with him was a cathartic experience for me. Although I like showing him with Britney, George W, Biggie and Oprah, I just finished a 3-up version that compresses many of the interactions into a 3 1/2 minute chunk, which I hope is a fitting tribute.

Music: Michael Jackson – Pretty Young Thing (U-Tern edit)
