Copy of 5,486 miles, 364 days (Password test)
toah’s most recent solo exhibition was an installation replicating her former bedroom in London, titled 5,486 miles, 364 days.
The title references the physical distance between the installation in Hollywood and the original bedroom that compelled her to uproot her life, confronting the abrupt transition of leaving behind the eight years she had built in London. Working within a self-assigned twelve-month deadline to establish herself as a full-time artist, the exhibition was presented on the 364th day.
What was once a private, emotionally charged space was made public, inviting viewers to witness what had previously remained unseen. The work was met with immediate and distinctive acclaim.
Those who knew her simply as toah were immediately drawn in, recognising a rare distinct sincerity in work that felt both exposed and assured.
