Bio

Adrian Gomez (b.1994, Seattle, WA) is an interdisciplinary artist who examines the intricacies of being a second-generation American. Drawing inspiration from pre-Colombian motifs, religious icons, and culturally significant objects he makes works that take form as sculptures. Examining personal history, loss of traditions, and the cyclical nature of labor, his works emulate a snapshot of his lived experience. Adrian received his BFA in Ceramics at the University of Washington (2018). He continued his education at Tyler School of Art (2019) and participated in a two-year residency at Pottery Northwest (2022) in Seattle. Currently finishing his MFA at the University of South Florida, he is working towards expanding his practice through the use of new processes in metals, sound, and video.
