Shift

2013

Shift questions perceptions of reality. Intrigued by, and in response to, notions of alternate planes of existence and parallel universes, Clements explores the different facets of fate and its outcomes. How much weight do our decisions really hold, and how different — if at all — could our lives look? Using intricate patterning and distinct athleticism, nine women embody this concept as they create an atmosphere rife with tension, harmony, mystery and symmetry.
