Soft Network is a cooperative platform for connective arts programming. We work between past and present to explore ways in which the archive and archival interactions can become integral modes of exchange, collaboration, creativity and commerce. Soft Network's mission is to provide opportunities for living artists and the representatives of non-living artists to support each other through sharing resources, labor and profits by generating new projects in collaboration with existing platforms.

Projects will be available to view during regular business hours of the exhibition space or by appointment. All artworks are available for immediate purchase at the exhibition space and in certain instances online via our partners.

In Soft Network's online store, items are divided into various sections that will be periodically updated. A dream archive of sorts, this collection of artwork, publications, special editions and ephemera grows out of Soft Network's interest in process and dialogue between practitioners and their inspirations. Soft Network's presentations will be ongoing, accumulative and intergenerational.

In addition to Rachel Comey, Soft Network's collaborators include Pochron Studios, Brooklyn; Stanly & Sons, Springs Long Island; Wolfy Part II, Tivoli, NY, Metrograph, NY, Halsey McKay, East Hampton, ArtFizz Projects, Parrish Museum Store, and Registrars Group LLC, New York.
