Refraction, the deflection of light passing from one medium into another.
It takes form through an escalating series of actions. Glassware, sealed in a bag, is shaken until it bursts, spilling shards across the floor. The performer moves through the glass in push-ups until exhaustion. A volunteer binds her to the ground with duct tape, then releases a cascade of broken glass over her body.
