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.
Carved wood and encaustic wax. Ancient ammonites fossilized. Sutures, chambers, ribbed ram-horns. Atmospheric spirals forming fractal superstorms above planet Earth.
Photograph with encaustic wax. In the earth for grounding, support, and nourishment. Growing and reaching deeper and stronger. The root of sprouting life.
Poetry carved in the rings of trees. Stories told, journeys documented, historic cycles captured in a lifetime. Good years, bad years, prosperity and despair. Embracing the destination. Bombarded with planetary disaster, nature’s fight for preservation, balance, beauty, and survival prevail.
Excavated treasure, biological reliefs of plant, insect, or animal. Replaced by mineral over millennia. Records of the past, respect of the ancient, stories of extinction, and awareness of the life cycle. A sense of beauty and collectability, energy and memory – eternal knowledge and afterlife preserved, with a warning of a future extermination.
