Clotilde Jiménez: Shapeshift
Shapeshift is the most comprehensive exhibition to date of Clotilde Jiménez’s work, tracing his evolving practice across collage, painting, sculpture, and ceramics. Known for his inventive use of everyday materials—wallpaper, clothing, Mexican craft paper—Jiménez explores themes of identity, transformation, and the societal pressures placed on the body through race, gender, and sexuality.
With a layered approach that draws from both ancient and contemporary sources, Jiménez’s work reflects a personal and artistic evolution. His figures, composed from fragments, embody fluidity, interconnectedness, and the strength found in reinvention. The exhibition features newly commissioned pieces alongside early student work and process materials, offering insight into his ongoing journey of becoming.
