ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Layers of pure transluscent beeswax, fluorescent pink pigment, gold pigment, charcoal and chalk on primed canvas board. White painted wooden cradle frame on rear, ready to hang. The surface is smooth but undulating so reads more as an object than a flat painting. Inspired by the simple act of observing time and movement from ones particular position on the planet. This image is taken from a six month pinhole camera exposure of the suns passage from midwinter to midsummer in 2016 at 60 degrees north.

The patterns and rhythms of time. Its cyclical repetitions are observed from ones particular position on the planet. Wherever or whoever you are, you are the pivot of that motion. Using the suns passage through the extreme shifts of the year, the actual heat of the sun or the visual translation of scientific experiments and observations that prove the Earth’s rotation. I construct my encaustic paintings by collecting pure beeswax, some natural pigments and wood ash from the Swedish forest to give a deep connection to the place and time I am lucky enough to call safe and home.
