Adam Cole is a multidisciplinary artist born in Melbourne and currently living and working in Brisbane. His diverse practice centres on sculpture and installation. He combines new and used common building materials and appropriated waste to explore themes of perception and representation, often evoking the body and the physical and psychological spaces we inhabit. His dark, humorous, and enigmatic works distort and subvert viewers’ expectations of materials and space through scale and illusion.
Cole is pursuing a Bachelor of Visual Arts at Queensland College of Art and Design (QCAD), majoring in sculpture. In recent years, he has participated in several group exhibitions and was selected to exhibit work in Contemporary Wearables 23, Biennial Jewellery Award and Exhibition, Toowoomba Regional Art Gallery, 2023.
