“Xaveer Claerhout & Barbara Van Biervliet (Kinetura) with Berengo Studio made an impressive showcase where the leading part was given to the transformable building called Kinetower. Wim Mertens, composer for Peter Greenaway’s film “The Belly of an Architect”, made the music for the event named after the movement and deformation of objects and spaces – Metamorphism.
