Atticus Adams
Atticus Adams is an American sculptor whose work explores memory, warmth, and the quiet poetry of everyday thresholds. Working primarily with metal screen, he uses the material as both structure and metaphor, creating sculptural forms that filter light, air, and recollection. Born in Oregon and raised in West Virginia, Adams draws from Appalachian craft traditions, family memory, and the familiar rhythms of domestic life. Since living in the Yucatán, his palette has deepened through the use of authentic pigments traditionally used by the Maya, bringing earth, tropical light, and ancient continuity into his work. Adams studied at the Yale School of Art, Rhode Island School of Design, and Harvard School of Architecture, and his sculptures have been exhibited in institutions including the Carnegie Museum of Art, The Mattress Factory, and The Westmoreland Museum of American Art.
