"Thin line" Installation

"Thin line" represents my vision of very well known phrase "A thin line between love and hate". As we all know how love relationships can be fragile and how quickly a peacful situation or respectful moment, sometimes right after saying the most "expensive" words:"I love you", can escalate in a split second to a wordless moment when nothing else is left except to show a middle finger and close the door forever. I created this work of art using encaustic technique with melted wax crayons on cardboard canvas which I left unattached for few days so I could give some time to the wax to cool down and dry while slowly making the edges of canvas slightly curved in that process. In that way I've managed to make curved canvas with flat middle area where it can be attached to the center of the frame and to give that floating look. By looking at it, it gives you feeling like it will fall apart any second and that's the way how I wanted to cause that edgy feeling in the observer of this work of art.
