STAFF PROFILE<br />

Adam Chodzko<br />

Senior Lecturer in Fine Art<br />

Adam Chodzko is an artist<br />

whose multidisciplinary practice<br />

explores the interactions and<br />

possibilities of human behaviour,<br />

in the gap between how we are<br />

and how we could be.<br />

Exhibiting work nationally<br />

and internationally since 1991,<br />

working across media, from<br />

video installation to subtle<br />

interventions, and with a<br />

practice that is sited partly<br />

within the gallery space and<br />

partly within the wider public<br />

realm, his work explores our<br />

collective imagination by<br />

wondering how, through the<br />

visual, we might best engage<br />

with the existence of others.<br />
