For Old Tale, Fort Makers invites Korn to focus her craft and knowledge of candle making to create a new link in the golden chain of folklore. Shown together as one narrative scene surrounding a central forest, her wax sculptures explore fundamental timeless truths as they evoke the mystery and magic of the fairy tale world. Old Tale riffs on the “same old stories” about the forces of good and evil, physical metamorphosis, and the fight for survival, and manifests how these themes are still relevant.
