“Land snails, which we normally think of as being rather slow moving, can actually disperse enormous distances by hitching rides on birds. I think because they live in trees and are particularly sticky, they’re prone to being carried by birds.” –R. Preece
Mind of a Snail is a shadow theatre and projection puppetry collaboration between Jessica Gabriel and Chloé Ziner since 2003.
