A.D. STRANGE

DOSSIER

Art is the corporeal representation of the deeply unsettling knot of humanity, which the artist tries to untie.


Adam Strange is a Canadian artist whose work will shock and delight you! Adam’s artistic influence is the Dada/Surrealist spirit and it’s methods. Adam works with computer software and montage at the intersection between twentieth century approaches to analogue painting, collage and film, with twenty-first century digital tools and resources to create contemporary artefacts. Adam’s method includes recontextualizing real moments experienced and photographed by others, sutured with the juxtaposition of internal realities, chance and accident. Adam creates his art for your pleasure or desolation, seeking the essentia, reflecting the under-current, offering respite from the illogics of the outside world, all to tickle your fancy in the disturbed.

COMPOSITIONAL GEOMETRY


It may be of interest to some how my images are constructed. The examples here demonstrates how the geometrical composition "informs" the placement and size of elements and emboldens the design of the image.
