On May 25th 2024 Nonchalant is proud to present THRILL, a solo exhibition by Sonia Ruscoe at its new location at 393 Main Street Catskill, a collaborative creative space with Wave Farm’s WGXC. The exhibition will be on view until June 16th, 2024.
THRILL is a collection of paintings that encapsulate the emotional adventure of human experience. Bright, whimsical, and uncanny, the individual paintings in THRILL collectively bring forth a realm that both cherishes and questions the unknown. These works are sentiments to the artist’s soul nodding towards the human existential journey opposed to the physical boundaries of existence.
Sonia Ruscoe is a painter and poet from and based in New York City and the Hudson Valley and has a BA from CUNY Brooklyn College. Her paintings have been shown at Sep- tember Gallery, Basilica Hudson, Baba Yaga, Better Read Than Dead, Lucas Lucas, and now at Nonchalant ( all in NYC/HudsonValley).
