Indianapolis based photographer and painter, Adam Starr, has been creating abstract works for the past several years. He is looking forward to showing his work at Zhou B Art Center in Chicago, IL (March-May 2020) and Siilk Gallery in Athens, Greece (July 2020). The photographs and paintings Adam creates come from a pure and vulnerable place. He incorporates the emotions he is feeling during the time of creation and tries to provoke a feeling of serenity for the viewer, using the emotional aspect of color and setting. A theme that surrounds his art and has intrigued his imagination since he started creating was the idea of enlightenment; what that term represents, and how humanity is in a constant struggle to achieve this transcendental state. The psychedelic nature of Adam’s style moves the audience to feel its strength, providing a window into the heart of its creator. These crafted pieces carry a moral dimension standing for simplicity and spirituality.
