Triton is a significant figure in Greek mythology, primarily known as the son of the sea god Poseidon and Amphitrite. Triton is often associated with his father's role as the ruler of the sea, and he is known for his ability to calm or stir the waves. A meditative exploration of movement and stillness beneath the surface. Layers of molten beeswax and oils merge with the photograph, creating a dreamlike suspension where body and water become one. The tactile depth of the encaustic surface evokes serenity and reflection, inviting the viewer to drift inward.
Created through a process that merges modern photography and printmaking with the ancient art of encaustic, layers of molten beeswax, oils, and resins are built up and fused with fire. The textured surface invites touch, its translucent depth suggesting both concealment and revelation. A one-of-a-kind encaustic mixed media painting — where photography, molten beeswax, and oils merge to reveal a serene underwater world. Layers of texture and translucency create a luminous depth that can only be achieved through fire and time.
