Georgia Nassikas is an internationally recognized artist selected to represent the United States State Department Art in Embassies program. Two of her large paintings currently are on exhibit in the historic Ambassador’s Residence at the U.S. Embassy in Vienna, Austria.
She mixes wax from her honeybee hives, damar crystals from fir trees, and color pigments from around the world to create her encaustic paintings. Her art explores contrast and beauty, balance and imbalance, often at the intersection of representational and abstract, through interplay of elemental forms, color, symmetry, and light.
