Artist Development: Adam Frost
“I create something beautiful and shiny to try and get away from the darkness”
– Adam Frost
Home Live Art are currently supporting Hastings based artist Adam Frost on the development of their new project STUCK, a year long performance project examining mental health, class precarity and queer experience through a series of autobiographical performances. Including:
Sink Plunger
A multi-disciplinary performance exploring the intersections of contemporary queerness and mental health. Featuring manic visions of sequins, foils, velvet, tinsel, crying paintings, self-portraiture, visuals and sound. It is a metaphor for plunging your life away – over thinking, over pumped, over worked, exhausted, anxious and lonely. This performance is a big sticky, messy mass of genres and contradictions.
SENDX43
Fusing together visuals, text, fashion and music SENDX43 attempts to question the inner workings of our mind through a series of out-of-body experiences.
Sometimes you can’t stop overthinking.

Adam has been commissioned by Home Live art and New Queers on the Block to undertake a period of research and development leading to a showing of new work in Hastings in September 2019.
