Leave it to artist Duke Riley to weave together a narrative involving an Irish goat, a talking seal, battleships, Boston history, and lots of plastic trash. These are the elements of discovery in his upcoming solo exhibition at Praise Shadows titled The Repatriation of King Skellig Mör. Riley, a Boston native based in Brooklyn, will broaden the repertoire of work shown in his recent Brooklyn Museum solo exhibition Death to the Living: Long Live Trash. The presentation will include new iterations of his acclaimed scrimshaws, sailor’s valentines, and the debut of a new type of work inspired by Victorian-era ruby glass.
