Artist Bio: I have always been fascinated with the way common themes are woven through the world's greatest myths. The stories are so very old and yet so current in many ways. They have lasted the test of time, especially in Ancient Greece, where the hero’s quest assisted by gods and goddesses, taught us astral stories and mantras to live by. Working with the medium of encaustic, a medium used in ancient Greece, wax becomes a figurative container for these myths and stories. By encasing these objects within this material, myths have the ability to persist and remain, revealing layers of time as their own brand of relic.
