Loomings: Paintings in Tar, Oil, and Gold Leaf

By Christopher Volpe

Reproductions of paintings in tar, oil, and gold leaf titled with quotes from Moby-Dick invoke Melville's novel as a cautionary, foundational myth for our own age of accelerating climate change and social disruption. This selection pairs evocative tar paintings from Christopher Volpe's "Loomings" series with excerpts from Moby-Dick and two brief essays by the artist.
