Nipper has worked with dancers, skaters, and performers in her work that deals with time, weight, balance, and motion. Her work, Bending Water into a Heart Shape (2003), is a four-channel video that creates interplay between the excruciatingly slowed-down motion of a skater doing a triple lutz with the melting of a mobile made of ice. The video tests viewers’ patience to witness the subtle transformations that develop over time, much like the patience required allowing stages in our lives to reveal themselves.
