Dawn Kasper’s work addresses her fascination with topics such as exposure, process, desire and meaning combining slapstick comedy and monologue to emphasize her thoughts and questions about art and life. The environments that Kasper performs in provide an open-air laboratory of thought, creating a theatrical space that also doubles as a platform for living sculpture. Kasper received her MFA from the University of California, Los Angeles and has exhibited nationally and internationally including Paris, Scotland and the Whitney Biennial. She is a recipient of a Mid-Career Artist Fellowship from the California Community Foundation and Artists’ Resource for Completion Grant from the Center for Cultural Innovation.
