SoiL Thornton's first institutional solo exhibition in NYC at Swiss Institute

The Swiss Institute (SI) in New York City is hosting "Metabolizing eviction try, work_mp3 and other games of topping," marking the first solo exhibition by artist SoiL Thornton, who is based in New York. This exhibition transcends traditional media to explore themes of identity, regulatory systems, and order. The notion of "topping" signifies power dynamics, revealing interactions between the artist and curator, the artist and institution, as well as the artist's relationship with the city, peers, and their own creative output. Acting as both a process and a state, it deconstructs and reshapes meaning influenced by unstable systems. Thornton’s works illustrate the delicate connections among life, labor, health, and property, contemplating what can endure amidst these complexities.
