Three Fishes, One captain

Year Created

Description
In “Three Fish, One Captain,” Ortaire de Coupigny skillfully explores the tension between observation and authority.
The sculpted and painted fish appear suspended within an ambiguous space, their forms both delicate and striking.
Hand-painted textures combined with vivid greens and deep aquatic tones give the fish a vibrant sense of presence, further emphasized by their framed setting.
The carved wooden caption becomes an integral part of the artwork itself, highlighting de Coupigny’s distinctive approach of blending sculpture, painting, and conceptual storytelling.
