Fish Skeleton (2026) has been produced as part of a series of works, newly comissioned for Slips Gilbert’s first solo institutional exhibition in Europe. At the centre of Slips is a newly commissioned site-specific photographic installation, which utilises the monumental scale of Flatland’s gallery space. The installation is an expansive collage of cut photographs and paper, swaying in the breeze and shifting with the natural light of the gallery space through the changing coastal autumnal and winter skies in Bexhill on Sea.
David Gilbert (b. 1982, New York, NY) lives and works in Los Angeles.
