British artist Emily Ponsonby (b.1990) is a painter and printmaker, primarily known for working with beeswax, a technique which builds upon the Ancient Egyptians’ Encaustic process – buffing, binding and scraping pigment into layers of wax. The rawness and malleability of her materials are in harmony with the bodies she depicts amongst the everchanging topography and gnarly shores of the Southwest. Developed from quick sketches, her monotypes and etchings echo this tactile approach and are at the foundation of every painting. They capture moments plucked from her pocket, through a window, a hedgerow or amid a snatched windswept conversation, conversations that ebb and flow unceasingly beneath the carpet of life.
