ADAM D. COHEN is a Raleigh, NC-based visual artist who works primarily with the human figure, a shared reference point that allows creative choices to be traced, like the reinterpretation of a familiar song. In the same way that fiction can be truer than fact, he distorts forms and descriptive color until the image cracks open and stories pour out–stories determined by the viewer that change depending on who’s looking, and when.

He received an MFA at the Savannah College of Art + Design and his work is held in private collections throughout the country.
