Body of Work Lyn Belisle Mulranny Arts Award My work has always been strongly in uenced by the idea of “shards” as a metaphor for human communication across time. A shard can be a found fragment of clay, a rusty nail, a scrap of handwriting – any little clue that becomes a “secret handshake” between the maker and the discoverer. I am perpetually drawn to visible traces from the passage of time that suggest lost story fragments. The translucent qualities of encaustic medium enhance the ephemeral qualities of these story metaphors and encourage the viewer to imagine what might be behind the veiled fragments of the works that speak to them.
