Thanks to my friend Susan J. Thompson for reminding me of these wax and pollen works works by Wolfgang Laib.
Pollen from Dandelion by Wolfgang Laib, 1999
Untitled by Wolfgang Laib, beeswax, 1993
The Five Mountains Not To Climb On by Wolfgang Laib, 1984
Those yellows are something special, don’t you think?

Laura: I love Laib’s work! Thank you for reminding me of it. I have been completely attracted to yellow for the past couple of years, so this is right up my alley. The elements of his work are: pollen, color (yellow), form, shape, size, space, and–in some cases–repetition. A lot more complex than when you first look at them.

Yes! I love that you’re familiar with this stuff. It’s new-ish for me. I am gobsmaked by the dandelion pollen and would love to see it in person. I imagine it has a dizzying effect. In a good way.
