About

Hand-built geometry, at the scale of a place

Casey Warr is a sculptor and welder based in Albuquerque. Born in West Texas and raised in the Alamogordo and Cloudcroft area of southern New Mexico, he earned a BFA in Sculpture from the University of New Mexico in 2006. For more than twenty-five years he has built every sculpture by hand.

The work treats geometry and light as active forces — prismatic and dichroic surfaces that change as you walk, and steel forms that hold their own against weather and time.
