Casey Weldon. Old Haunt

About

Thinkspace Projects is thrilled to present Casey Weldon’s new solo show, ‘Old Hauntt.’ Exploring real world predicaments from the social lives of his friends, filtered through his unique lens, Weldon presents an all new colorful and varied body of work in our fourth solo exhibition together.

‘Old Haunt’ is a menagerie of ideas Weldon has collected over the last couple years. Each piece is inspired by real-life scenarios he has witnessed, including stories of loved ones, observations about his environment, and his own introspective self-evaluation.

The collection itself is a lovely convergence of many ideas, all in pursuit of connecting with the viewers. As Weldon describes it, “my intent is to be narrative, accessible, and hopefully pleasurable to look at. I definitely like to involve a lot of nostalgic pop references, especially for the more humorous side of my work, but I also like referring to nature and man’s interaction with it. In the end my major goal is to get the viewer to be inquisitive about the painting, either to get the punchline, or make one up on their own. I can only hope that I can be interesting enough for them without being too ambiguous, but still say something without spelling it out. Plus lots of cats.”
