ADAM PARKER SMITH - SCULPTOR AND SWAMI OF SURREAL!

For the sardonic-fantastic side of art, make sure to check out Adam Parker Smith, the New York-based visual virtuoso creating wacky-surreal whatchamacallits.

Adam is the swami of the surreal and divine-spark sculptor. He excels at depicting things that look and feel like they’re only one tiny tip of a million possible icebergs. Observing his awesome art is like immersing yourself into a rollicking emoji carnival or gummy bear command post. Fabricating phantasmagorical objects with ‘faux’ materials of all sorts, his undulating otherworldly thingamajigs, shiny sculptures, gilded fallopian tubes, tinged philosophers, freaky pharaohs and lassoed iridescent hearts will cure all your ailments at once.   

Scale continually shifts, surfaces go from twinkling to matte, glitches in perception form and metamorphose into existential self-awareness. Polished objets d'art and psycho-visual womp dovetail with clichés of appropriation and allegorical ingenuousness. Adam inhabits the zone between art, life and wide-open fields of fantasy.

 A sort of roving magician-minstrel artisan, Adam implements gnarly concepts, makes bangin’ art all day long and stages surreal platforms of metaphysical/metaphorical dynamos. Hot damn! He heart ❤ Adam Parker!
