Duncan Berry
Oceans in Common
with the Moken Art Collective
February 14 – March 10, 2026
This collaborative show celebrates the connection of all seafaring people throughout the world, from the Oregon coast to the fishing villages of Thailand. Duncan Berry’s eloquent gyotaku prints are exhibited alongside those created by the Moken, an indigenous people living in a village-on-stilts along the shore of the Andaman Sea in in Thailand near the Myanmar border.
In 2024, Duncan and Melany Berry formed a profound connection with the Moken people while teaching them how to create gyotaku prints, a method of making artistic direct impressions of sea and land life forms. In this process, one-of-a-kind print impressions are taken from the inked surface of fish, sea creatures, and plants, printed on mulberry paper and mounted on birch panels.
