(Meta)morfosis seeks to create a confrontation with the subject and theme of the archive video. A self-referential piece, the work calls into question gender, social dynamics, and power by how two different people and in different positions within the same circumstance express the same information. Through the repetition of the same audio and video, the piece is divided into three acts. The first act, „The Doctor“, is the original archive video where one of Suberville's surgeons is interviewed about his work. In the second act, „The Patient“, she replicates in the most accurate way possible the attitudes and movements of the original video, acting as the surgeon. In the third act, „The Actress“, she presents herself as a patient of whom the surgeon speaks of in the first video, assuming the attitudes and emotions that have been imposed on her.
