Cutting

Encaustic on wood panel 50 x 60 cm. | 2017

"Cutting" is a bold, luminous encaustic work where molten beeswax, damar resin, and rich pigments collide in dramatic layers. Deep blues and inky blacks slice through glowing whites, molten golds, fiery oranges, and subtle emerald undertones, evoking sharp contrasts, fractured light, and raw energy.

The fluid yet deliberate flows suggest cuts through surface and emotion: separation, revelation, transformation. Each fused layer creates translucent depth and shifting luminosity. The piece changes with the angle of light, revealing hidden currents and intense contrasts that feel alive.

Created using the ancient encaustic technique, "Cutting" combines heat, texture, and colour in a way that is both visceral and meditative. Gallery-wrapped edges, ready to hang. Its tactile surface draws the eye and invites prolonged looking.

A striking, one-of-a-kind original by Susana Blanco, ideal for contemporary spaces that embrace drama, movement, and emotional intensity. Perfect above a dining table, in a hallway, or as a powerful accent in a living room or studio.
