Matt Barton: I Think I Feel Something featured multiple dwellings, audio, and video experiences, and numerous found and made objects that draw upon new age practices. Elements of Barton’s preposterous environment included color and crystal therapy and pineal gland activation stations, a water feature, and a communal structure for stimulating the chakras. Half adult playground, half spiritual retreat center, Barton captures the pleasure of exploring novel spaces and unfamiliar subcultures.
