CRAWLING OUT OF MY SKIN is part of the digital group show THE ARTIST IS ONLINE. Digital Paintings and Sculpture in a Virtual World on view at KÖNIG GALERIE in Decentraland (36.100). If I have to listen to one more inane clubhouse chat—I don’t because I deleted the app and made an artwork out of it—or hear yet another NFT discussion, I will literally jump out of my skin.
