Kay Klose
Encaustics, Textiles

Kay Klose works in two ancient techniques, encaustics and felting.

With the encaustic process, Kay incorporates her photography, textiles, found objects, etc., into her work. Developed by Greek shipwrights to seal boats, the encaustic process involves applying beeswax and damar resin with heat and fire. Highly durable, the Egyptians adopted the process to paint faces on tombs, paintings which survive today.


Using Nuno felting and often eco printing, Kay fuses art with fashion, creating durable elegant garments and accessories.  All her clothing is sculpted using Merino wool, silk, soap, water, and friction.

Kay holds a BFA from the College of Arts and Crafts, Oakland CA, and has been a working artist for 30 years. Her work has been shown in various museums, universities, and juried shows throughout the United States and Mexico.
