Casey Weldon – “Old Haunt” @ Thinkspace Projects [Los Angeles]

This weekend, painter Casey Weldon returns to Thinkspace Projects with his latest solo exhibition and his fourth with the Los Angeles gallery. In ‘Old Haunt,’ there’s a bit of a desert theme that is undoubtedly influenced by all the time he’s spent in Las Vegas. There’s also an element of mysticism and the supernatural infused in this work. Casey is a master of the glow, which he utilizes to generate temperature and depth, both visually and emotionally. His trademark color palette of warm golds, cool teals, and hot pink is back on display, a stylistic foundation he’s drawn from throughout a consistent evolution. Weldon‘s work is identifiable, yet he isn’t stuck in neutral — it doesn’t stagnate. The pieces breathe and live. The paintings in ‘Old Haunt’ each tell a story. They are linked, if not directly, then by a connective tissue that suggests they inhabit the same realm or universe. It’s an ominous one, yet beautiful and inviting.

““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.”
