SHATTERING is a participatory performance in which individuals destroy fragile items in a private space. It explores the fear of untapped anger and the freedom of release by highlighting the beauty of being present and the euphoria of letting go. After the performance, the shards are sorted. Some are discarded, and others are used to create works. SHATTERING is a reflection of our broken governmental and social systems. It asks us as a society to examine what is worth saving and what needs to be left as a relic of an outmoded system.
