Shana Moulton: Whispering Pines.

16 04 2009

Shana Moulton’s Whispering Pines is probably one of my most favorite contemporary video artists. Her videos are somewhat goofy, but beautiful in the same aspect. I love the fact that she incorporates qualities of dancing because I love to dance. I tend to make little dance videos with one of my best friends. I always find myself dancing along with Moulton when I watch her work.

“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.”1
