Encaustic Sculpture Painting – 24″ L × 14″ W × 2″ D

“Sacred Remnants” is a meditation on presence, memory, and the traces that linger unseen. I work with fragments, sensations, moments, and ancestral memories, shaping what often goes unnoticed or cannot be spoken. The forms emerge through listening: responding to material, gesture, and the pull of something just beneath the surface.

The cross at the heart of this piece carries both symbolic weight and personal resonance, anchoring the work while inviting reflection. Layered textures, intertwined rope-like strands, and earthy tones create a tactile landscape that is at once grounded and alive. Warm hues in the center draw the eye inward, offering a sense of energy, comfort, and the quiet pulse of life within the rugged exterior.

Each material, each layer, is a conversation, between the internal and the external, the past and the present. Sacred Remnants is not a statement but a marker, a space for instinct, intuition, and ancestral presence to surface. It invites viewers to pause, to feel, and to witness the beauty in what remains, often quietly, beneath the surface.
