About the artist

Born in Texas and raised in Virginia, Christine Cassano is an interdisciplinary artist, now living and working in Arizona, who exhibits regionally, nationally, and internationally. As a person with Synesthesia, Christine explores converging systems of our modern, hyper-connected world. Sound as medium has become central to the approach of her paintings, sculptures and installations. As she weaves together audible and visible structures and patterns of our biological, technological and cosmological systems, her work considers our emerging era of converging cartographies, networks and methods of hybridization.

Christine is a recipient of the 2018 Artist Research Grant from the Arizona Commission on the Arts, funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts. In 2016, she was awarded a Contemporary Forum Artist Grant from the Phoenix Art Museum, supported in part by the Nathan Cummings Foundation Endowment. In 2015, she was awarded a residency at the University of West Georgia and was also a recipient of the Phoenix Institute of Contemporary Art Grant, resulting in a published artist catalog of her work. Her public art sculptures, installations, and commissioned works are in various collections throughout the United States and abroad. Cassano is currently represented by Gebert Contemporary in Scottsdale and G2 Gallery in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
