Affect on the Viewer • Shana Moulton’s work can be categorized as Dream Scenes which allow the viewer to escape into an alternate reality • The low-tech materials and approach used paired with the content of the work allows the viewer to both emphasize with and laugh at the character • The cheap materials and rough editing are at times distracting but overall make the work more relatable and believable
