Adam Justice-Mills

Adam Justice-Mills uses paint, photos and pixels, creating abstract layered pictures, concentrating on recalled movement, structure and colour. Adam's earlier works in both drawing and photography were highly figurative landscapes and portraits. Over time, they became more interesting to him as he forgot their context but remembered the emotional significance he attaches to them. His "memory" drawing series are pen & pastel on paper and - most recently - layered glass. They are his exploration of how we form and recall an impression of something or someone, how their significance can be undiminished despite the forgetting of details. The relationship between the artist's memory and the subject is brought out through the repetition of a drawn line, based on a recalled pose or performance.

These delicate, evocative images rapidly emerge from subtly different takes on a recalled subject: sports and dance, play, day-to-day living.

Adam now uses photography as a means to evoke emotion through structure, texture and pattern, exploring the way colour works to create emotive space.

His stained glass memorial work and murals were commissions from Martin Primary School and were the start of using glass and increased scale in his artwork.

Previous exhibitions: Lauderdale House, Tavistock Centre, EFO Summer Open and Winter Art Shows.
