Buzz, Melt & Create – Explorations in Encaustic Art will showcase a variety of local artists who will demonstrate how beeswax, the natural ingredient used in encaustic, can be combined with printmaking, photography and even built into three dimensional sculptures.
Inspired by Art Gyms’ recently opened encaustic workspace and the planned installation of a bee hive on its roof-top, curator Elke McGuire brings together works by Patricia Aaron, Alane Holsteen, Dylan Gebbia-Richards, Katie Kalkstein and Laura Tyler for this unique exhibition.
