Interview with Peter Adamyan
Peter Adamyan’s work defies definitions and so I feel like simply calling him an artist is an understatement. Especially since, he’s developed a unique way to combine his skills as both a painter and a sculptor in order to create a new format of art that has still yet to be categorized. So, on the surface his work is bright and figurative, but upon closer inspection it smacks you in the face with double entendres and shock treatments. And it’s all done on purpose with an exciting skill and patience, since it can take up to 400 hours to finish a single piece. Peter and I met up at a famous donut shop in San Francisco, where he revealed the secrets of his process, his love of the blues, and his addiction to sugar.
