There's often pleasure in being reminded of one’s physical existence by art, and each work in the show does that on its own terms.

One of Jacobs' installations creates the sensation of being absorbed or implicated in the art, as if the art is watching you.

The works in the exhibition swing like a pendulum between internal perceptions and the acknowledgment of external ones. 

The sculptures themselves are described not as installations, but as three-dimensional paintings, or in some cases, “situations.”

"Where do our avatars hang out when not in use?"

"But now I think small town America is the best thing we have. There’s low barrier to entry. This place shows that things are possible."

After two years of perfecting her process, Crombach returned to Austin to curate a show at Co-Lab Projects' DEMO Gallery.
