Opening Reception: Adam Stuart Solo Show

Nicolet College Art Gallery

Join the opening reception to view this exhibit, connect with others, and enjoy light food and drink.

Adam Stuart grew up in a marshy place in the Saginaw Bay area of Michigan. He has a passion for nature that drives his work into areas of sculpture and drawing. Adam primarily works with clay, fibers, and various drawing techniques. His works often revolve around the human body, its experiences in space, and its interactions with other beings and objects. His artwork is playful and curious, often drifting into realms of absurdity. The imagery he creates also pulls from his experiences as a queer person growing up in a conservative environment, but also how that relates to the delicate ecology of the natural habitats in which he immerses himself.

Adam has taught ceramics classes to adults for over nine years. He achieved his BA at Saginaw Valley State University with honors, Magna cum Laude in 2015. He graduated from Washington State University with an MFA in 2023. He has been an art instructor at Washington State University, Nicolet College, Interlochen Center for the Arts, and Eastern Michigan University in the Fall of 2024. He has taught for non-profit art studios such as Studio 23 The Arts Center, The Artisans at the Dahmen Barn, and Nicolet College Arts and Enrichment program.
