In the artist’s game-based installation, you are the player in a speculative universe. Facing choices that contend with biases and exclusions, you gain insights into an archive of voices present and past.

THE SOUL STATION is Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley’s first solo presentation in Germany, featuring a newly commissioned work and a survey of video games from the past five years. Through game-based installations and fictional universes, THE SOUL STATION invites you to explore your ethical, political and moral decision-making, and considers the broader structures and histories of marginalisation. A newly commissioned work, entitled YOU CAN'T HIDE ANYTHING, is presented in two episodes; a second episode is revealed on 12 September 2024, during Berlin Art Week.

Offering a comprehensive survey of Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley’s oeuvre, THE SOUL STATION includes key works from the past five years. Together they trace the artist's practice, which combines lived experience with speculative fiction in order to shed light on positions and histories that are often simplified or disregarded. The newly-commissioned work YOU CAN'T HIDE ANYTHING builds on the artist’s work with the audience-as-medium and is the culmination of a journey through the exhibition space, which invites you to contend with your own experience, choices and biases.
