With encaustic painting, the transparent nature of the medium allows texture, shape and depth. By using plexiglas to hold wax painting, it maintains that transparency of
the medium. By mounting the painting above a small canvas provides a projection space with a reflection for the painted wax layers when it is illuminated by light.
Light, in differing levels of brightness and angle, create ephemeral interactions with the layers of the painting. These light interactions reveal elements of color and texture not initially observed in the painting. This changes your perspective and awareness for the unseen.
