James Casebere
Artist Cv
Paradoxically emotional and austere, Casebere's work centres on the point where photography, architecture and sculpture intersect. Carefully constructing table-top models of interior spaces using plaster, Styrofoam and cardboard, he dramatically lights these miniature interiors or "sites" before photographing them and enlarging the prints using high spec Cibachrome - a process usually associated with lush, glossy colour photography. The results are both surreal and remarkably realistic.
James Casebere lives and works in New York
