Indianapolis-based artist Casey Roberts uses a photographic process called cyanotype to create ethereal images of wildlife and landscapes. This civil war-era process gives a vibrant blue image when exposed to sunlight and developed. Roberts paints with this light-sensitive medium directly on paper or canvas. With everyday items such as baking soda\, bleach\, and peroxide\, he achieves a range of colors and textures through controlled chemical reactions. This process is repeated\, adding many layers until the image is fully realized\, often finishing with watercolor painting or a collage element. His work represents nature’s subtle way of dealing with the particular aspects in the relationship with mankind. \n  URL:https://krasl.org/event/in-the-artlab-casey-roberts/ LOCATION:Krasl Art Center\, 707 Lake Blvd\, St. Joseph\, MI\, 49085\, United States CATEGORIES:Exhibition ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://krasl.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Moonlit_RiverWithoutEnd_2018.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20190810 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20190930 DTSTAMP:20260418T033012 CREATED:20190723T132156Z LAST-MODIFIED:20190729T205052Z UID:10000665-1565395200-1569801599@krasl.org SUMMARY:In the Gallery: Inhaling the Universe DESCRIPTION:AUGUST 9 – SEPTEMBER 29\nThe exploration of the natural environment is a central theme within the works of artists Jon Hook and Andrea Peterson.
