Artist Statement
ALTA/ER
Translation: tradition of removing relics of martyrs and saints from their original burial sites in order to deposit them under the altar.
We are designed to break down. Somehow this frustrating combination of meat and mind has a drive to experience and interpret phenomena wholly outside its perception. We become the half mad curators of our own arbitrary associations. We collect our objects, imbue them with IDEAS/PHILOSOPHY/DOCTRINE, build our customized visual vocabulary. And sometimes we're encouraged by that feeling that we're onto something, living as we do in service to this hard wired drive to see meaning in the material...
So collect the teeth
Embellish the fingers
Prop up the bones
Build an altar
Wash, rinse, repeat.
I present my work as a three dimensional sketchbook you can step into. This room is filled with attempts at pinning something down that to date eludes me.
Enjoy!
This is a free event, but we are extending our museum hours as well!

Majestic Creatures - closing reception
Majestic Creatures - Closing Reception
Artist Statement
Oil Paintings by Chad Creasy
The Majestic Creatures are reflections of the way I felt, during different phases of my life. Each animal is a mirror—reflecting not just the natural world, but a vast spectrum of human emotion. This series of oil paintings are my way of translating feeling into form, and instinct into expression.
Every brushstroke is a quiet conversation between spirit and subject. The bear roars with anger! The Giant Squid pulls me into a deep dark depression. The Alpaca beams with joy, while the fox lounges in serenity. The shark slices through fear. The Highland cow radiates happiness. The Ibex climbs with courage. The White Peacock offers peace, the Blue Peacock basks in vanity. The purple Peacock, a reflection of narcissism.
Each creature tells a story—some bold, others whispered—but all are steeped in the emotional truths that unite us. I paint to quiet my mind. And yet, through this stillness, I hope to inspire others to find a way to be in the present moment often. These animals are majestic not only in their form, but in the depth of feeling they carry. I invite viewers to pause, reflect, and feel alongside them.
This is a free event, but we are extending our museum hours as well!
