"Wax Substances"

My solo pieces for the exhibition in Paris explored the grief of losing a past version of oneself. Like a candle that melts, and creates beautiful shapes with its castings, we also take new shapes as life sculpts us into who we will become.

The candle no longer retains it’s rigid form, and it might also lose it’s wick, but the result of it’s melting is still the same wax - now free, wild and beautiful.

Presented in 3 pieces, “small change of substance”, “large change of substance” and “rough shift”, this mini collection speaks to the challenges of letting go of the past—without denying the formative experiences that reside within it.
