The iris seem to undulant. “Eternal Iris” hints at erotic energy, but this picture of vigorous, luxuriant blossoms is notable in its absence of human presence. The only human form is an inanimate statue, a green version of a Chinese terracotta warrior. It appears inert, overshadowed and outsized by the apparent ‘life’ of the iris.
Inspired by the elegant curves of Georgia O’Keefe’s giant erotic iris paintings and by the explosive energy of Anita Nowinska’s flowers, “Eternal Iris” blends eroticism with movement. But unlike the work of these artists, it doesn’t employ large-scale effects or contrasts in color. The composition flows in waves – inward, outward and from side to side. In addition, each panel is a separate picture with its own composition.
“Encaustic” technique is instrumental in creating effects of depth and motion across the tryptic. Made from melting pigments in beeswax and dammar, Encaustic paint can produce three-dimensionality using translucent layers as well as poured, carved or embossed bas-relief. This three-dimensionality enhances the illusion that some of the flowers appear to be bursting forth or receding into the clouds. The shiny surface reflects light in different ways, at times changing the colors and apparent depth of the bas-relief.

My art manifests my vision of a dynamic world of multiple, simultaneous perspectives. As Dr. Dalia Hakker-Orion, curator of my exhibition in Tel Aviv wrote: "She doesn't paint according to instructions or styles, but evolves at her own pace, creating original paintings manifesting passages connecting different realities." Each picture goes beyond the obvious, leaving hints of meaning that provide possibilities for personal interpretation. There is more to see than what can be taken in at a glance.
Encaustic (hot wax) paint is the current medium of my choice. Translucent, underlying layers impart radiance and mystery. Within these, other mediums and objects may be embedded. Encaustic layers can be scraped back to reveal substrates or carved into new structures.
