Employing multimedia installation, photography, indie-game environments and narrative design, Martin examines the collision of personal memory with larger systems of power. His practice explores the charged inner life of the young, disaffected male as it intersects with systems of desire, labour, and institutional power. Seduction and unease co-exist in his works, drawing viewers into spaces that feel at once intimate and disquieting. Martin frequently appropriates the formal devices of visual novels and other game genres, using their language of “agency” and “choice” to expose how authorship and narrative are, in fact, tightly scripted.

Adam Martin (b. Iowa, USA) lives and works in New York.
