A performance art installation where a twenty-six foot illuminated albino alligator follows a small paddle boat around Lake Marilyn for two nights of Digital Graffiti, an international projection festival in Alys Beach, Florida. Magical Anxiety is a playful illustration of our absurd fears. As humans, we are occasionally given to ridiculous worries and imaginative dramas. Humorous self-reflection is our best tool for navigating these tricky waters. The human actors in the small boat lend a sense of reality to the alligator and the alligator lends a sense of unreality to the actors resulting in a floating tableau vivant of potential tragedy and insistent comedy.
