Ketamine Cave Dreams is a solo exhibition by Houston-based artist Christopher Cascio. Known for his bold explorations of obsession, ritual, and altered states of consciousness, Cascio’s latest body of work delves into the psychedelic and psychological landscapes revealed through his ongoing ketamine-assisted therapy. His vibrant, hard-edged paintings and textile-based works depict portals– staircases, doorways, and cavernous spaces, offering visual pathways to transformation. These pieces, deeply influenced by traditional quilting patterns, color theory, and AI-generated imagery, pulsate with an energy that shifts between structure and dissolution, inviting viewers to step into a world that is both immersive and meditative.
Cascio’s approach is both meticulous and intuitive, balancing geometric abstraction with a raw, deeply personal exploration of memory and perception. His new works reflect the ineffable quality of psychedelic experience, where reality bends, morphs, and fractures into new possibilities. By merging painting, fabric-based collage, and digital intervention, Ketamine Cave Dreams expands the boundaries of contemporary abstraction, pushing the medium into uncharted territory.
