I Hope You’re Feeling Better by Casebeer

 

Opening Reception: Thursday, May 12, 7-9pm, during Scottsdale’s ArtWalk

“Dear Whole Wide World,
The news of your troubles has me so restless I stayed up all winter and painted you these letters. Even the orange tree outside the window is on the fritz. I hope you’re feeling better.” Casebeer

Phoenix-based artist Casebeer was born in Madrid, Spain, raised in Flagstaff, Arizona, and spent a stint living in The Hotel Chelsea in New York. Casebeer works predominantly in mixed-media paintings but her work also includes short story writing and a five-year project called “The Sentence Camera” in which she documents dialog daily on her arm in Sharpie, transcribing the day’s random and unrelated phrases into notebooks where they form curious, new relationships to one other. She received her degree in Journalism from Northern Arizona University and did post-graduate studies in fiction writing at Arizona State University.

Casebeer is represented by Tilt Gallery in Scottsdale. Her piece, “Wait. Do You?” was part of The Phoenix 7th Ave Streetscape Public Art Project in 2012. Casebeer has exhibited her work in Scottsdale at Tilt and Downtown Phoenix at Monorchid, The Ice House, Legend City Studios and the ASU Downtown Museum, and at the Phoenix International Airport Museum.
