Asa Mease
Sculpture & Post-Studio Practice

Asa’s work in sculpture, paint, print, and book arts considers how political, economic, and natural ecologies are situated within the landscape. Sourcing found objects, images, and text, his work recounts both the doldrums and the contradictions of living in the American West and explores how natural and built environments intermingle.

Originally from Williston, Vermont, He received his BA in studio art and biology from Whitman College in Walla Walla, Washington. He has exhibited work throughout the Pacific Northwest, including Oregon Contemporary, SATOR projects, 1122 Outside, Carnation Contemporary, and Pendleton Center for the Arts. In 2019 he participated in the Glean Portland Residency through the municipal dump. Asa is currently pursuing an MFA in Sculpture and Post-Studio Practice from the University of Colorado Boulder.
