Fascinated with movement, kinesthetics and the basic laws of motion, Bernard’s new sculpture, drawings and video synthesize movement and materials, informing works that are both experiential and interactive. Well known for her 2 dimensional encaustics, a recent review by Joanne Silver in Art News states “[Bernard], who is also a dancer, draws on the movement of her whole body to create fluid marks she burns and slices into waxy surfaces placed flat on the floor of her studio.”  Working from the premise that the understanding of movement can be revealed through repetition, her recent sculptural works combine concrete, wax, steel and lead.  “A mathematical equivalent to my process would be summarized by the equation, movement + materials = form.”
