The Lost Gardens of Lobsteropolis welcomes visitors into Philip Colbert’s bold and exuberant visual universe. Best known for his iconic lobster character, the exhibition presents large scale paintings and immersive environments that combine art history, popular culture, and the imagery of contemporary digital life. Colbert’s work is energetic, humorous, and visually saturated, offering a playful but sharply observed reflection on how images circulate and accumulate meaning today.

Colbert’s lobster becomes a guide through shifting cultural landscapes where past and present intermingle. Joyful and visually spectacular, the exhibition reflects on how images shape our understanding of the world and how artists continually reinvent the stories we tell about ourselves.

At the heart of the exhibition is a monumental new painting that stages a fantastical journey through myth, technology, and contemporary visual culture. Colbert’s striking flower paintings and shaped canvases extend this playful world, reworking traditional subjects with graphic intensity.
