What better way to start the New Year than by us introducing ourselves to you? Starting from today, we will publish a series of mini-interviews with our artist so that you can get to know us a bit better. Today's turn is Adam E Justice-Mills who is a photographer, drawer, and painter.
- What was the first piece of art you remember making?
I remember making a geometric painting which I was doing in
a simple way when I was about 6 or 7, but when the painting was finished, I
couldn't think how it worked, as it came out very tri-dimensional and I
remember being fascinated by the fact that it worked, as a piece of art in a
way I wasn't expecting to, and I couldn't work out why. I wish I could remember
what the painting was!!
- If you were an animal, what would you be?
That is a hard question. I’d like to be a hippopotamus
because they are cute and scary.
- An indulgence
My indulgence is largely chocolate, that is something I
really like to indulge in, especially the 75 to 85% variety….Chocolate and a
good book.
- When making art, what is your biggest mind block?
I suppose, probably not being very clear about what you want
to say in the art…taking it too seriously also can affect the process.
- Favourite place in East Finchley?
Probably Amici’s, I like it here.
- What inspires you to make more art?
Well 2 things; one is if I am about to do a show and I
haven’t got anything and that is quite a push, and the other thing is when I
see other people doing stuff and I think I would like to give it a try.
- How did you got involved in the East Finchley Open?
I got roped in to an event and after the event I was asked
if I wanted to do it again and here we are 10 years later!
- What is your fondest memory of London?
Going to see Sound of Music in a big cinema, that was lovely
experience.
- What are you doing at the moment?
I am busy trying to combine music, sound and memory into my
art.
