Closing Soon: Sylvia Snowden ‘On the Verge’ at White Cube New York (Until 19 December 2025)
‘On the Verge’ brings together 20 paintings from across Sylvia’s career, including several works from her seminal ‘M Street’ series, named after a street in Washington DC, where the artist has lived and worked since 1978.
Created against a backdrop of political and socioeconomic turbulence in the United States, the effects of which were felt deeply by society’s most vulnerable communities, Sylvia’s paintings steadfastly resist caricature.
Avoiding explicit social commentary or any clear markers of identification, the artist notes, ‘The subject matter of my painting is the human being, period.’
