Midnight Moment: Allison Schulnik, MOTH
January 1, 2020 – January 31, 2020
every night from 11:57pm-midnight

Midnight Moment is the world’s largest, longest-running digital art exhibition, synchronized on electronic billboards throughout Times Square nightly from 11:57pm to midnight.

Allison Schulnik uses painting, ceramics, and, traditional animation to choreograph compositions that embody a spirit of the macabre and a tragicomic perspective on love, death, and farce. A hand-painted moth flutters in stop-motion, transforming from a fully-formed insect, to a nascent cocoon, to fantastical, sometimes ominous creatures. Schulnik began this work after a moth hit her studio window, painting frames for the film almost daily for 14 months as she was pregnant with and gave birth to her first child. The work reflects on the cycles of life and the bodily and emotional metamorphosis of motherhood. MOTH is presented in partnership with MASS MoCA.
