Fritz Casuse
Navajo sculptural jeweler Fritz Casuse finds inspiration for his art all around him -- his wife, son, students, poems -- but regardless of where the idea germinates, he intends to enjoy the process of creation. “Have fun, that’s what art should be about: fun,” he says, adding, “Enjoyment in creating art is my main goal.”
A 1996 graduate of the Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe, Casuse spends his free time having fun in two- and three-dimensional Art. He's knowledgeable about several processes and techniques, but with no particular favorite. “They all relate to my creative process as paintings evolve into sculptures and jewelry, all centered around one main idea.”An award-winner at both the Heard Museum Fair and Market as well as the Santa Fe Indian Market, the folks at Native Treasures Indian Arts Festival simply say that “His designs truly break the mold of Native American jewelry.”
