AA2A: Artists in Residence

Jon Adams – Artist in Residence at the University of Portsmouth

Jon’s recent fine art practice draws upon a wide range of materials and processes which include photography, video, sound recording and digital sound and visual manipulation, 3D installations, traditional sculpture and illustration. Jon is currently a Research Fellow in Disability Arts within the Faculty of CCi at the University of Portsmouth. Work has also been commissioned by national organisations and he works closely with the Arts Council of England, DadaSouth, galleries and national disability organisations.

Jon Adams' work includes themes of hidden disability and positive dyslexia and Aspergers awareness combined with a subversive or geological context which are woven with the lasting consequences of sustained childhood bullying at school.
