With a wry, unsettling humor and a low-tech, pop sensibility, the wildly creative New York video/performance artist Shana Moulton’s hilarious multi-part Whispering Pines features her alter ego Cynthia, a confused, hypochondriac agoraphobe prone to colorful hallucinations and absurd fantasies.

A densely atmospheric, image-filled exploration of resurrection, freedom and possession, Gospels of Childhood examines birth, death, pleasure and pain through song, chanting and movement in an inventive, evocative, ritualistic work of theater and music.
