Shana Moulton’s alter ego Cynthia is a fragile person who struggles with her physical presence in the world. In a pastel coloured setting full of obscure symbols she experiments with alternative remedies and medicines. Every Angle is an Angel is an associative mix of TV esotericism, New Age spirituality and contemporary self-optimisation. The title has been borrowed from the 1978 book Journeys into the Bright World, in which astrologist Marcia Moore chronicles her mind and body-altering therapeutic experiments with the drug ketamine.
