Kasey Mannino, born in Rochester, New York, and raised in Mocksville, North Carolina, is a second year college student at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts’ School of Filmmaking, and a member of RED4NC; a nonprofit organization that focuses on equal rights, fostering empowerment and education, engaging community, and celebrating diversity.

As an artist and an individual he likes to observe the complexities, and intricacies of everything from the mundane to the extraordinary.  He loves being able to look at something and finding that your eye can lead into the smaller details of what really makes up the whole, then observing the whole as the sum of its parts.  He finds that this is a concept that can give unique insight into anything, whether it is related to art, design, engineering, science, community, and even people.  He enjoys the idea of creating art that at first look may seem like a singular image, but can also be seen as the product of many details coming together to form something unique.  He sees this as an exercise of the mind, imagination, and the senses.
