- Anat Shinar updated the Artwork Pallette/Platelet
Palette/Platelet is an exploration of impulsively following oppositional desires in an effort to feel whole. - Anat Shinar updated the Artwork Here's How (Refuted)
In Here's How (Refuted), Anat Shinar draws on a long-time obsession with self-help literature. Along with dancers Kara Motta and Kristin Van Loon, Shinar posits that minimal effort brings about maximal change, as long as one believes it can. Integrating movement, text, and installation, Shinar crafts a space in which clarity and disorientation overlap, reflecting how her struggle with anxiety manifests externally.
