Reflections Of Moonlight
'I'm always looking for new surfaces, tones and tactile textures in my work, sparks of surprise and the unpredictable in the depths of field and focus intrigue me. I'm transforming chaos into calm and tranquility, offering and inviting viewers a sense of soothing and hidden delight woven into translucency'.
Working from a studio at the foothills of the Waitākere Ranges, Helen Keen’s encaustic wax paintings resonate with the local flora and fauna while inhabiting the fragmented light of this forested ecosystem. Kaleidoscopic wonderlands de-materialize, shape-shift, and surface patterns melt into surfaces, to give the optical effect of “a panorama containing multitudes.”
This patterning and surface mark-making create painterly echoes of a bygone era, which are recognisable, yet brilliantly fashioned in their individual composition. Each painting is a landscape of folded light, where dream aesthetics fuse elemental forms of shadow and pigment.
