Whispering Pines 10, Chapter 1
Shana Moulton
Shana Moulton’s alter ego Cynthia has been searching for the meaning of life and fulfilment in her video series Whispering Pines for almost twenty years. She is assisted by interactive home décor, self-help instructions, participatory videos and cosmetic rituals. In the very first chapter, she finds spiritual liberation on her yoga mat through a blissful union with Mother Earth.
