About this artwork
Capturing the first warmth of daylight
Ceramic with Encaustic finish. Encaustic pieces are very time consuming because of the nature of the encaustic patina. It takes between 15-20 hours to work the piece alone, and then several weeks to dry the patina.

« As a woman and artist, the feminine form is a recurring theme, both in my sculptural and photographic work. My art is a reflection of how I move through extraordinary and mundane experiences. »
Julia Agnes is a passionate Canadian sculptor and photographer. Her love for art began in childhood, when she would carve household soaps into little works of art. Today, she constructs figurative, observational sculptures that internalize the physical: the postures, habits and movements of human beings. Agnes conveys small familiar moments, such as a forehead wrinkling, in rich detail and with impressive focus.
