The Cocoon, created to imitate natural cocoon – a silky case surrounding and protecting certain insects during the pupal stage – serves as a little hideout in a chaotic metropolitan where passers-by are welcome to take a seat to find peace and a break from their busy day.

The Cocoon was created by Sanitas Studio, a landscape design and art studio conducted by Sanitas Pradittasnee who is specialised in the creation of striking art installations, landscape and sculptural projects.

Beyond the landscape architecture and fine arts boundaries, Sanitas Studio’s projects usually raise awareness about the environment and sustainability with an intention to minimise man-made architecture while highlighting everchanging nature. The Cocoon shows the contrast of city and nature which can harmoniously coexist. The reflective material of the outer shell is carefully chosen to take identity from what it reflects, blending into both natural and man-made surroundings. 

The aspiration of Sanitas Studio is to encourage people to question the relationship between human and nature as well as their responsibility to the earth.

The sound of bells can be heard when the wind blows. Sanitas cast the bells herself to get the shape which match the structure. The technique adopted by the artist is a local method that has been practiced for over 200 years in Ban Pa-Ao Village, Ubon Ratchathani Province.

Sanitas Studio’s works have been on display at local and international venues and events, including Bangkok Art Biennale and Bangkok Art & Culture Centre, Busan Sea Art Festival (South Korea).
