International Encaustic Artists
October 1-29, 2014
N.A.W.A. Gallery, New York
Juror: Jenn Dierdorf
Curator and IEA Exhibitions Director: Lola Baltzell
Reception: Thursday, October 2, 5-7 PM
Curatorial Statement
This is a materials-based show, and the work selected will feature rust, which complements encaustic beautifully. When exposed to water, whether as rain, fog, or dew, iron will oxidize into iron oxide, which is rust. From one point of view, that of the aesthete, rust is beautiful. Yet it also a poignant reminder that everything is changing, decaying, leaving us no firm place to stand. From a more positive point of view, the nature of rust also assures us that because everything changes, anything is possible. Deeply understanding the nature of rust gives us the opportunity to embrace the truth of all things. Transformation is not only possible but inevitable.
