Soil Factory Manifesto Scribing Initiative
Swale
Weekly on Saturday and Sunday, starting from Jun 27, 2026, until Jul 6, 2026
Nolan Park - Nolan Park - Building 6B
The public is invited to join the Soil Factory “Manifesto Scribing Initiative” as part of an exhibition including Linda Weintraub, Ben Altman, Anna Davidson, and Johannes Lehmann, who together explore soil in terms of eco-sensory materiality, social history, ecological documentation, and soil science research. Visitors are invited to place pen in hand and “manifest” their most ardent beliefs and hopeful convictions, compose and scribe their own manifesto, or copy someone else’s. Guests can enjoy a reprieve from disengaged technological efficiencies. Experience the body’s tempo and rhythm. Manual, mental, visual coincide here.
Swale is one of the 2026 Governors Island Arts Organizations in Residence.
