The Art Box - Episode 270 - "Synesthesia a Catalyst for Everything I Do" - Meet Christine Cassano

Earlier this year, Linda and Steve found themselves at Core Contemporary, chatting with Nancy Good when she casually mentioned synesthesia—a concept that, at the time, went right over our heads. Later, guest Monica Martinez brought it up again, and Laura Hales from Scottsdale Arts took it a step further, sharing her plans to curate an entire exhibition on the subject. That’s when Monica came to the rescue, suggesting her friend Christine Cassano from New Mexico, someone who could truly illuminate the topic. A few emails and texts later, Christine graciously agreed to join us from her Santa Fe studio. What followed was an absolutely mesmerizing conversation with this extraordinarily talented and unique creative mind. Christine's insights into synesthesia and how it intertwines with artistic expression left us in awe. As you tune in to this fascinating discussion, you’ll quickly understand why we were over the moon to have her on the podcast. So, grab your headphones, pour yourself a glass of wine, and get ready to dive into a world of neurological creativity you may have never explored before. This is one episode you won’t want to miss!
