Three works with "strong ambient presence," according to Frilot, are Kelly Richardson's Exiles of the Shattered Star, Wagons Roll, and Twilight Avenger, all of which provide the forest-like soundtrack for the whole New Frontier show and are meant to be experienced over time.
Richardson "uses cinematic language to create part-real, part-imagined landscapes that provoke audiences to participate in storytelling while offering visual metaphors for our modern reality--a wavering hybrid of fact and fiction," according to Sundance materials. Her work will also be shown on an outdoor screen down on Main Street.
Shown here, Twilight Avenger "presents a dreamy, dark, enigmatic forest, occupied by a radioactive deer."
