‘Divided Art Project’

Collaborations between artists can be difficult. With the amount of time, energy and thought an artist puts into creating a piece of art, there is a tendency to treat the work like a newborn child. Handing it off for another person to raise can be a stressful situation. In the “Divided Art Project,” strangers, friends and spouses work together to show how these partnerships can produce a show that is a fantastic testament to collaboration. Whether it is a painting, a piece of sculpture or fine jewelry, each creation looks like it could have been crafted by the same hand. It’s a testament to what can happen when ego is put to the side and art is allowed to grow.

About the Author

‘Divided Art Project’

Chasson Higdon is a writer, artist and filmmaker. At an early age, when other boys were learning about sports or cars, Chasson had his head buried in art history books or creating paintings and drawings. This trend has continued on into adulthood, where he has earned his BA in Fine Arts from Indiana University, received multiple awards for his creative endeavors and is still currently clueless about sports or cars.
