Artist Statement

Using found objects mixed in encaustic, Tinola explores ideas about whatness, being, embodiment, gender and the postmodern experience of presence.

Tinola is inspired by stories of space and by comets. Tinola incorporates bone, moss, insects, petrified fruit, photographs, dirt and other ingredients in many of her mixed media encaustic pieces. Her work is also informed by philosophy and feminist theory.

Tinola finds great joy and serenity in finding artistic treasures while going on long runs.
