In her new video installation, “Wil-o-Wisp,” artist Rachel Rose recounts the life of Elspeth Blake, a magical healer who is forced to flee her life following an unexpected tragedy. Through the artist’s heavily manipulation of the work’s visual imagery, music, and viewing environment, Rose explores how her main character’s perspective is altered by her mystical practice and, in turn, how our own perspective can be changed by circumstance. Experience “Rachel Rose: Wil-o-Wisp,” now on view.

Have you ever noticed that when you look at a screen door from a certain angle, the two layers of straight lines sometimes appear wavy? Artist Rachel Rose manipulates this visual phenomenon, called the moiré effect, in her new work, “Wil-o-Wisp,” by layering images on top of each other. Experience how Rose distorts your perception of time and reality in her mesmerizing exhibition “Rachel Rose: ‘Wil-o-Wisp’/The Future Fields Commission.”

What is a “wil-o-wisp”? Artist Rachel Rose takes the title of her new video installation from the literary phrase “will-o’-the-wisp,” which was commonly used in folklores and fairytales to describe the fleeting light—such as in a forest or swamp—that might lead the main character astray. Rose’s film, which is the artist’s first narrative artwork, features a tragic nighttime fire that coincides with the mysterious disappearance of her main character. See “Wil-o-Wisp” (2018) now on view.
