Shylo Silvenar is a transdisciplinary artist and designer living in Lexington, Kentucky.
The imagery in Astray In The Woods: An Interactive Performance derives from her work on Myths at McConnell Springs, a series about self discovery using the park as a catalyst for imagination & storytelling. The image which was once a frozen performance is now exporable, but still ambiguous. Much like the traveler on their path, the glow in the darkness invites the viewer to peek inside. The scale of the scene demands focus, forcing the viewer to align themselves with the window, and draws them into the moment. Curiosity inspires interaction with the scene, and perhaps for just a moment reminds the viewer of fond memories, or inspires the viewer to determine the story for themselves. These thoughts and memories are the prize here.
