OURacle was selected for San Diego Mesa College In-Part Exhibition 2019. In this interactive art installation, guests were reassured and guided through self-readings using oracle (tarot) cards. They chose cards then found their meanings on @OURacle, a dedicated Instagram account created by local and worldwide community. Crystal made the oracle cards, posted 2/day leading up to the exhibition, and asked the Instagram community to interpret them.
