About the artist
Adam Du Shole
American
Adam du Shole was (b. Newport, RI - 1980) to a Navy family, and spent the subsequent 18 years moving around the United States. Following graduation with a BA in Comparative Literature, he relocated to Tokyo, Japan to teach ESL. During his time in Japan, he found a renewed interest in the arts, returning to the US where he enrolled in the Rochester Institute of Technology's MFA program in 2D Animation. After, again, relocating to New York City he pursued a career in the arts working in a variety of fields including animation, advertising, design and visual merchandising. Eventually coming to the conclusion that he probably should have majored in studio arts to begin with, he moved to Taylors, SC in 2015 and began developing his own body of work, eventually landing his first solo exhibitions in both Greenville and Spartanburg, SC in 2020.
