Caz Scott: Breath Work

From Sawyer Yards:

“Sawyer Yards presents Breath Work, a new sculptural installation by Houston artist Caz Scott at the Sawyer Yards Art Alley. Breath Work is a single artwork in three parts that represents the process of emotional regulation, taking internal action and expressing it outwardly, and moving from the states of red-hot hyperarousal and the blues of hypoarousal into a blended, centered state of being. The piece was produced using digital design techniques, machine-aided construction, hand painting, and assemblage. The combination of machine and hand-crafting is persistent in Scott’s work, as are explorations of loose barriers between the digital and the real.

Caz Scott is a multidisciplinary artist, published author, and educator. With their professional background in architecture, performance art, and sculpture, alongside a deep interest in natural sciences and metaphysical philosophies, Caz offers a cross-disciplinary approach that drives innovative creation. Raised a Houstonian, Caz draws from their identity as a queer, gulf-coast resident, and their work is representative of their internal world and external influences.

Join the artist for a public reception celebrating the installation of Breath Work from 5:30 – 7:30 pm on Friday, October 11. The event will also feature a DJ, and a performance by Scott that also explores ideas of breath work and physiological regulatory processes.”
