Artist Christiaan Zwanikken resurrects deceased wildlife by reanimating the skeletal remains with servomotors and robotics. He breeds these new species in a 400-year-old monastery in Portugal, restored from ruins and converted into his laboratory.
You could describe kinetic artist Christiaan Zwanikken as something akin to a steampunk taxidermist. Bringing dead animals back to a semblance of life through robotic engineering, his work is captured in this remarkable documentary that traces the boundaries between art and nature, life and death.
