Inspired by the Japanese concept of wabi sabi, Dara Barker's encaustic series celebrates the beauty of imperfection wrought by the inexorable passage of time. The artist and interior designer draws on her collection of vintage textiles, reimagining their organic textures in dimensional canvases. Layers of translucent wax, paint and oil pastels are applied and burnished to evoke the rich patina and character of an antique piece. The luminous works beautifully reflect the light, its sheen shifting with the angle of view.
