Artist and designer Jes Moore is interested in materials and design processes that explore concepts such as astronomy, mythology and history. “I attempt to unveil bits of the Great Mystery through the artistic study of constellations, mythological themes and yogic philosophy,” Moore says. Among her best-known pieces are the “Trichilocosm” series, which uses abstract aesthetics to contemplate the ancient Indian cosmologic concept of the trichilocosm; also known as “the billion-fold universe.”

Moore’s choice of materials is very intentional, as the encaustic medium allows her to use all her skills to create new and exciting pieces of art. New and exciting art made in an ancient medium - pigmented beeswax. The work is layered in such a way that, while the artist points to the place to look, she leaves just enough space for your own imagination to roam.

Her methods characteristically involve sculptural, painterly and drawing techniques as well as the use of various unique collage materials, meticulously collected. Moore has a background in illustration, stained glass, wood and metal work, mural painting, and digital art. She currently works full time as a senior freelance graphic designer while showing her work in various galleries and other venues across the country.
