Intro
PRECIOUS is an exhibition that asks us to look at the ways in which we covet and desire some things and discard others; the luxurious materials we revere versus those we so easily dispose of. Micah Adams is arguably equal parts artist, collector and mad scientist, creating art that is inspired by the materials themselves, pushing the boundaries of what is possible, if only to see if it can be done.
