In this series of paintings at TASTE, Melinda Hannigan focuses on the working side of the maritime world, a world she has known all her life. Enormous, rusting, battered and bashed steel hulls travel the world. Each storm, each port, each docking leaves inscriptions of voyages past on the ship’s skin. There is no stopping the ravages of the maritime environment, but these vessels take on an uncommon beauty as they age.
