Solomon Fine Art is delighted to host an exhibition of new paintings by Wexford based artist Serena Caulfield.

Describing her paintings as “mashup-allegories engendered with the frivolities and traumas of our time”, Caulfield’s sources range from classical artworks to children’s drawing books, aural histories to local myths. Disobeying a linear art history while reclaiming it somehow in the present, she repurposes the power of historical art, both visually and conceptually, imbuing the anachronisms of the past with the attitudes of the present.
