SHANA MOULTON: WHISPERING PINES
Shana Moulton creates evocatively oblique narratives in her video and performance works. Combining an unsettling, wry humor with a low-tech, Pop sensibility, Moulton plays a character whose interactions with the everyday world are both mundane and surreal, in a domestic sphere just slightly askew. As her protagonist navigates the enigmatic and possibly magical properties of her home decor, Moulton initiates relationships with objects and consumer products that are at once banal and uncanny.

Trouble with Moulton. Try this prescription. Think about Marmite, then roll your eyes a bit, then exhale slowly. When composed say out loud, so all can hear – say ‘Art doesn’t get any better than this.’ All of the best. Regards, Hugh
