Liz Priestley is a regional artist living and working in the small village of Manilla, in northern NSW. Encaustic is her chosen medium. Liz’s work is best described as a combined interpretation of both the immediate physical landscape, and that of the internal landscape. It is an exploration of the subject, viewed via a nostalgic lens.
“Memory and an emotional connection to place, are the elements I try to bring together in my work. Our earliest memories are what fascinates me. I strive towards pinpointing the connection between our first impressions of our environment, and its emotional corollary within our future. Landscape is our conduit for the spiritual, this has been illustrated across cultures and generations. By using encaustic, I am alternately layering, carving and scraping out an image. There is a revelation in the work as it progresses, and its final form. This process is a physical representation of searching those layers of memory. The resulting image is the vehicle in which the viewer resonates with their own epiphany of personal, binding memories.
