It’s okay to like problematic things. In fact, it is inevitable that you are going to like something that is problematic. There is almost no type of media that does not have it’s social issues.
The real problem is when people defend the problematic things about something that they like. It is not okay to ignore all of the bad things about something, just because you like it. You can both like something and acknowledge it’s problems.
“Jacobs’s dioramas provide peeks into a world in which reality is presented in such exquisite detail it begins to look surreal.
The artist draws from art history and garden pest control brochures alike to create miniature 3D works of art, viewed through a circular glass lens. Viewers get the impression that they are looking into another realm, simultaneously natural and constructed, familiar and unknown. In a way, we get a taste for a fish’s life from inside the bowl.”
I’m crying because this is incredible
