CASEY HAUGH

AVAILABLE WORKS

Casey Haugh is an American painter born in Wilmington, Delaware, in 1986 and currently based in Washington, D.C. He holds a BFA in Painting from the Pratt Institute, which he earned in 2009. Haugh’s artistic style spans multiple genres, including abstract expressionism, impressionistic landscapes, and post-impressionism, reflecting his ability to fuse traditional techniques with modern conceptual ideas. His work often explores existential themes, blending complex emotional depth with visual experimentation

One of Haugh’s most recognized bodies of work is The Void series, where he uses still-life arrangements to explore the relationship between humanity and the cosmos. The black table in these paintings symbolizes the infinite void of space, while curated objects serve as metaphors for human life and Earth. Employing oil-glazing techniques, Haugh achieves a luminous, three-dimensional effect, emphasizing the coexistence of order and chaos through unfocused geometric patterns. His work provokes reflection on the interconnectedness of all things and encourages viewers to contemplate their purpose, inspired by the idea that the word "universe" literally translates to "one turn"—a reminder of life’s fleeting nature
