“I am interested in fabricating structures that operate as a means to view and frame actual space, surroundings and real time encounters.”
Adam Gillam’s delicate structures have an impromptu quality, akin to a makeshift moment given form. His work is beautifully balanced and nuanced; scraps of material, like scraps of time, are assembled in an inventive, bricolage fashion. The works in Ideal Paste developed from months of preparatory work in the studio but are also semi-improvised in response to the architecture of the gallery space and the experience of working in it.
