Upon entering the gallery, one is surrounded by wall-hung biomorphic forms in multiple glowing hues that seem to transmute, interacting in new and unpredictable ways, with every variation in the room\u2019s illumination and every shift of the viewer\u2019s perspective. Forms within the forms also seem to move and alter. Shaped like amoebae and radiating like gems, the works evoke life both at its most primordial level and, simultaneously, at its most technically advanced and aesthetically refined. The way viewer\u2019s interact with the Pods\u2014by moving around and among them, by drawing closer and stepping back, by observing the differences wrought by variations in sunlight or levels of artificial lighting\u2014is essential to the artist\u2019s aims and the work\u2019s meaning.  Colon is principally concerned, she has said, with \u201cnon-linearity, shape-shifting, fluidity, liquidity, temporality, motion\u201d\u2014everything that is contrary to \u201cstasis.\u201d And, indeed, in examining her work one encounters no acute angles, no flat contours, no rough surfaces. The constructivist aspects of Modernism\u2014straight vectors, the grid, uniform modules\u2014are here superseded. Sinuousness, brightness, protozoan shapes, mystery, and opulence prevail. Once engaged with the Pods, the eye and the mind never rest. Everything is flow and change."}
