Carved wooden panel, torched, with encaustic wax, plaster, acrylic paint, iron oxide. Aerial views above the planet. Fictional land masses become islands. Sculpted by flooding water. Threatened by erosion and super storms, in rapid climate change.
Photograph with encaustic wax. Quiet walk through the country landscape. Ghostly shadows in the thick atmosphere. Phantom visions and memories fading in the greyness.
These are photographs with encaustic wax paired with carved and torched wood. Aerial views of desert terrain, abstract, geometric, and monotone. Randomly cultivated landscape – marks on the planet surface. Followed by destruction, poison, and depletion – charring the jeweled veneer.
These are carved wooden panels, torched, with encaustic wax inlay. Twilight in the woods. Sky and sunlight vanishing, horizontal rays through the dense woodland. Day creatures settle, as the nocturnal emerge. Silhouettes diminish on the horizon as daylight fades, gracefully welcoming the luminescent moon through drifting clouds.
