Comprised of hundreds of images ranging from photographic reproduction to high realism to abstraction, this series is a site to explore, mythologically and autobiographically; from where to examine exile from paradisiacal constructs; the cosmic snake/DNA, double helix, mapping and the human genome project; the shedding and re-growth of scales, of coverings and protection; fear, loss and regeneration. Examples from this body of encaustic work have been shown in Collins, Waldburger, White: Wax at the Elora Centre for the Arts, summer 2006 (with Nicole Collins and Natalie Majabar Waldburger) and in the two-person exhibition In the Garden with Linda Clementina Martinello, fall 2006.
