Shelley Jordon and sound by Kurt Rohde
The White Box at the University of Oregon in Portland presents (Lost) In the Woods, a solo exhibition of work by visual artist Shelley Jordon and sound by composer/musician Kurt Rohde. Join us Saturday, October 25th for the opening reception and to meet Shelley Jordon and Kurt Rohde. (Lost) In the Woods is on display at White Box UO from October 25 – December 6, 2014.
(Lost) In the Woods is a multidisciplinary, interactive animated installation created by visual artist Shelley Jordon in collaboration with musician/composer Kurt Rohde. The piece explores the experience of being “lost” in the woods from the perspective of emotion, metaphor and the psychological. Spanning three galleries, the installations combine hand-painted animations, original artwork, and live-action videos with original music and sound. The paintings are activated with projected images and animations of various sizes and duration, as people walk to specific points in the installation. Additional animations appear in unexpected places, comprised of chance images accompanied by sound and music.
