Your last round this week, and Friday calls for a proper send-off. Barscapes features Casebeer, an artistāand Phoenix art scene pioneer and sweetheartāwho explores meaningful coincidence through mixed media paintings and collage. Set your eyes upon her work here, titled Happy Hour.
The red balloon. An elation, happy hot air, encapsulating a childhood happiness that is by nature fleeting, ephemeral. The dress, screaming gala, Grace Kelly, and at this particular moment in our lifetime, a wistful, longing ode to dressing up. The cornucopia of cocktails to the far corner. The present, wrapped in red, echoing the balloon.
The void, the free fall she exists in. The heavy, grounding, THUD of our brains, the seat of our reality and senses, the harbor of our experiences and memory.
I feel we are all this image; we have been in this surreal, and very real space. Individually and collectively, at the bar and now.
I am Jasmine. I tend bar, illustrate, and create. Find me .wines.black.lines
