Extracting ‘beauty from evil’

JMF Casey as an artist makes a return to the traditional craftsmanship of art, as he labours for hours in his bedroom over minutely thought-out, technically and thematically complex pieces. Working on scratchboard and canvas, but also in performance, installation and bookmaking, he has been producing art for over 10 years.

He delights in the esoteric and the strange, wrestling with subject matters that are often neglected in contemporary art. JMF Casey’s inner torments somehow unravel into something quite beautiful as he works.

His work has appeared in Le Gun and Bare Bones, Blood and Rain (a novella by Tom-Paul Smith). His “eerie chapel installation” (Dazed Digital) The Church was recently exhibited at 20 Hoxton gallery. He has also produced DVD recordings of performances, collaborating with other artists, musicians and filmakers.
