First Aid

[ Original Sculptures + Limited Edition Prints ]

Under the traumas, challenges and triumphs of our personal histories, how far are we able to project ourselves toward our goals, possibilities, and dreams?

’FirstAid’ seeks to invite personal consideration of the viewer through the composition of identifiable objects used in sports and pass time. Dialogue and narrative are invited when juxtaposed with the icon of trauma and healing.

In this sculptural series, several iconic objects, have been enveloped in the ubiquitous wound-dressing Band-Aid.
Once objects are fully covered, several coatings of Encaustic Wax (Natural Bees Wax and Dammar Varnish) hermedically seal each piece adding additional protection. This process enables a glazed polish to the dressings and protects objects from handling and environmental harm.
