Adam Parker Smith’s work is populated by subjects pulled from the fertile environment of my fears and longings, polluted with filth, obsessions, crushes, jealousy and grace, merely a reaction to his perception of life. In his work he toys with ideas of imperfection, humans flaws and magnifies them in his often grotesque puppetry.
“Through this combination, I establish psychological sites for disparate elements to congregate in environments that are simultaneously haunting, familiar and alien. These tragicomic installations are private, uncensored, darkly humored and most often involve the direct participation of the viewer.”
