Asa Mease is an artist, gardener, baker, and educator. His work in sculpture, community-based practices, and printed media deals with notions of labor, choice architectures, foodstuffs, and value. His work is rooted in a conceptual and research-based practice, considering how political, economic, and natural ecologies are situated within the landscape.
Originally from Williston, Vermont, he received his BA in studio art and biology from Whitman College in Walla Walla, Washington. He currently lives, works, and studies in Boulder, Colorado—pursuing an MFA in Sculpture and Post-Studio Practice at the University of Colorado. Past residencies include GLEAN Portland, Sou'wester, and the Alma Creative Residency at Prairie Futures. He is a former member of WAVE Contemporary Artists Collective in Portland, Oregon. His work has been shown nationally and is included in public and private collections.
