Adam Wilson Holmes is a UK based artist, currently residing in the Northeast of England. His body of work explores notions of masculinity, social performance, and self advocacy, using a multimedia practice, of drawing, sculpture, and performance art.
Adam is interested in ways we can engage and express our self-critical parts, sharing where they arise, in ways they are felt, and how we can find moments of liberation.
