VIOLENNE
A scene in which Enne awakes to find herself mid-operation. A violin bow is attached to each arm and her fingers have been splinted with blue spikes and red bands. A red cord runs from her navel to a blue violin. She is patchworked together with feminine fabrics lace and nylon. Blue lights trail down her spine. Like a mermaid, her legs appear to be fused. In a dreamlike state she discovers her body's transformations and begins to explore the potential of her augmented limbs and extensions.
