Page Laughlin, Flags at Sea, oil on Arches L’Huile, 2023, 51 ½ x 41 ¼ in.
SHIP/SHAPE is a dynamic exhibition featuring more than 20 paintings and sculptures, from painter Page Laughlin and sculptor David Finn, that explore and delight in the various manifestations of ships as image, symbol and metaphor. The exhibition showcases two distinct, but interrelated, bodies of work presented side by side. Although at first glance the two artists’ work might appear radically different—in medium, use of color, physicality—on closer examination strong parallels emerge. This marks the first time in over 30 years that the two artists, who are a couple, have developed an exhibition together.
