In Persephone’s Secret Hiding Place, the timeless myth of descent and return is reimagined through the fluidity of water and the luminosity of wax. A figure drifts beneath the surface — suspended between worlds — her movement both graceful and uncertain, as light refracts and memories blur. Evokes myth, mystery, and transformation, perfectly mirroring the submerged serenity of the figure, beneath the surface, she finds stillness — a sanctuary between light and shadow.
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 hidden sanctuary where transformation begins.
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.
Organic surface, soft hues of gray, pale green, and ivory merge through layers of molten beeswax and resin, creating a mist-like translucence that blurs horizon and wave. The surface texture—subtle ripples and organic striations—echoes the natural movement of water and wind, inviting touch and contemplation.
