Interviews Editor Emily Chambers Sharpe talks with visual artist Scott Aasman on art as attention, presence, and prayer. Some of his artwork can be seen on our website here. This interview has been edited for length and clarity.
Scott Aasman is an illustrator, artist, community builder, part-time chicken farmer, and zine maker. As a student of both art and theology at Redeemer University, Scott found a way to express the ideas he was reading in textbooks visually through his work in the studio. By colliding and fusing biblical and cultural meta-narratives and layering them with personal and local narrative, he attempts to open up possibilities in ways of seeing tired and ‘over-seen’ stories through surprise, mystery, meaning, and wonder. Scott has been an American Illustration AI40 Chosen winner and his work has been seen in galleries, churches and publications across North America.
Scott is also a co-founder of Salt Cellar Arts, an arts-focused community for the “spiritually attentive and creatively engaged,” whose goal is open the doors for the churched to engage more deeply in creativity, imagination and cultural literacy while championing the role of the Divine in art-making. Scott lives and works out of Hamilton, Ontario, with his wife Michelle and their two children.
