Swamp/Where Is Light (video installation), Phoelix Yiwen Gou 2022 SVA MFA Photo Video 2022-05-25 | Swamp/Where Is Light, 2022Multimedia installation with mylar, fabric, and color videos, with sound, 8 min.Swamp/Where Is Light is an immersive, multichannel video installation that conjures the common experience of mood disorders on both a personal and societal scale. Using projected text; colorful, distorted imagery; and layers of fabric and reflective Mylar, Phoelix infuses her work’s physical environment with a powerful psychological ambience. To enter the installation is to enter a mental landscape, surrounded by warped fragments of language, music, bodies, and other visual elements. Through these means the project evokes the pain and anxiety that lurk in the shadows for so many individuals, not just as a feature of the human condition but, for up to one in five U.S. adults, as part of life with mental illness (NIMH).
