Walden [verb] – a group show at Elastic Arts


Walden [verb] is a mixed-media show consisting of art made by members of the cast and crew of a 3-channel video installation called Walden [verb]. This 3-channel work will be the central piece of the show, and various satellite pieces in different art forms will form a creative grouping to accompany the main video installation in the space. Each satellite artwork will be connected to and inspired by the main work either by theme, underlying discussion, visual aesthetic, materials, or location/space. Of course, each artist is also connected to the main work because they in some way participated in the creation of it.

Participating Artists

Emma Rozanski, Liz Gomez, Yoni Goldstein, Gonzalo Escobar Mora, Madigan Burke, Zach Barner, Hadley Austin, Ronen Goldstein, Guy Fixsen, Bobbie Meier, Steve Meier, and Daniele Wilmouth

 

About Walden [verb] the 3-channel video installation: An impressionistic adaptation of the book ‘Walden’, with playful abstractions relating to critiques of his life and work. We follow a young woman in the snowy woods as she undertakes various ritualistic procedures in nature and in symbolic spaces. The film links themes of environmentalism and human discord to weave fragments of dystopian narrative, the three channels linked by a single soundscape.
