The Museum of Modern Art Presents Shana Moulton: Meta/Physical Therapy
The Museum of Modern Art will be opening a new site specific installation by Shana Moulton called Meta/Physical Therapy at the Museum of Modern Art from February 17th thro
This exhibition will premiere a new site-specific installation by Shana Moulton, whose work seeks to capture the enormity and banality of everyday life. Through performance, video and sculpture, Moulton chronicles the experiences of her semi-autobiographical alter-ego, Cynthia, as she navigates personal choices and physical limitations. Transforming the Kravis Studio into a prismatic environment, this installation employs the artist’s signature blend of spiritual imagery, medical technology, popular culture, and references to high art and dollar-store kitsch. An extension of Moulton’s Whispering Pines series, which began in 2002, the project continues the artist’s incisive examination of the aesthetics of pain and healing and the mass marketing of wellness and explores the maladies of middle age. Presented as a multi-chapter narrative, the installation will be accompanied by a series of performances created in collaboration with composer Nick Hallett, bringing Cynthia’s inner world to life.
