GUEST ARTIST ON WEDNESDAY
Derrick Adams is a multidisciplinary New York-based artist working in performance, video, sound and 2D and 3D realms. His practice focuses on the fragmentation and manipulation of structure and surface, exploring self image and forward projection. The artist draws not only from characters projected in the media, but also from those he encounters in life. “I’m always around very dramatic people,” he says. “When people say ‘Am I being too much?,’ I say ‘No, not at all!’” Adams grew up in a large, musical family, full of women, in Baltimore. His uncle, a commercial artist, encouraged him to draw from an early age. “I always wanted to be an artist,” says Adams. “Even in elementary school I was making the posters for holiday events. They would pull me out of a class to make sure that they had a big banner to walk in and see in the morning.” |
