ART IS A CONTROLLED INTERRUPTION A PRACTICE OF CATCHING THE MOMENT BEFORE IT DISAPPEARS.

I WORK ACROSS IMAGE, OBJECT, MOTION, AND SOUND TO TRACE THE SHAPE OF WHAT DOESN’T SIT STILL.

It isn’t a portfolio.

It’s the place where the work stays honest.
AN ongoing record of what I make when thought moves faster than structure.

REVISION — NEUE 7.6

NOTHING STAYS UNTOUCHED

Pages become places worth lingering in, and issues become experiences people anticipate, keep, and share.

PERSPECTIVE NOT THE TRUTH

CAT — 1.07

I work between order and interruption. Where clean lines argue with impulse. Where rhythm breaks before it resolves.

CAT — 1.08

Vertical is the state I build in— a place for unfinished thoughts, sharpened ideas, and the things that refuse silence.

EXPLORATION PHASE

Some pieces settle.
Some don’t.

Both reveal something the finished version cant.

SOURCE — FIELD NOTES

MODULE — A.1

A section of studies in raw structure. Textures tested under pressure. Forms pushed until they reveal intention.

MODULE — A.2

Experiments with physical materials and controlled distortion. Where touch, weight, and failure shape the outcome.

MODULE — A.3

Objects examined through repetition. Small shifts creating new patterns. A record of how matter responds to motion.

MODULE — A.4

Fragments from ongoing investigations. Part prototypes, part unresolved ideas. Work that stays honest by not pretending to be finished.

MODERN RITUALS

STUDY — 04.13

SELECTED WORK

LINES BECOME SIGNALS.
SURFACES BECOME STORIES.

STRUCTURE ARGUES WITH IMPULSE UNTIL BOTH LEARN TO STAND STILL. GRIDS SET THE PACE. MARGINS HOLD THE QUIET.

VISUAL EXPERIMENTS

/

/

001

Studies in image, light, and distortion. Tests that don’t follow rules. Pieces built from instinct, error, and the urge to see what happens next.

MOD II/AK

FORM & FUNCTION

/

/

002

Objects, systems, and shapes shaped with intention then pushed until they reveal their limits. A dialogue between what looks right and what works.

MOD III/AK

SOUND & MOTION

/

/

003

Moving images, rhythm studies, and audiovisual fragments. Work driven by pulse, tension, and the quiet between frames.

MOD IV/AK

WRITTEN FRAGMENTS

/

/

004

Poems, lyrics, and unfinished lines. Thoughts caught mid-breath. Words that behave more like images than sentences.

MOD V/AK

THINGS I CAN’T EXPLAIN

/

005

CREATIVE Ideas that arrived uninvited and refused to leave. The work that sits closest to who I am and who I’m still becoming.

PATTERNS EMERGE. FRICTION CREATES MEANING.

Signals form. Surfaces respond.

ILLUSION
LATENCY
PERSPECTIVE
CONTROL

EMBRACING THE

UNKNOWN

I follow ideas into places that dont have names yet. Some reveal structure. Some collapse into noise.

Work shaped by movement, memory, and interruption. Studies in light, depth, and distortion. Each piece begins as a question and ends wherever it needs to.

WHAT HOLDS UP IS WHAT MATTERS.

Observation over explanation.
Process over certainty.

I follow ideas into places that shift as I step into them. Paths appear, vanish, reappear somewhere else. Some lead to clarity. Some lead to noise.
Both keep the rabbit moving.

Rabbit
CHASING THE WHITE RABBIT*

I chase the things that change direction without warning. A line bends. A thought splits. A shape becomes something it wasnt meant to be. I stay with it until it reveals a reason to follow.
The rabbit is never still.

VERTICAL

Adam KNOXVILLE

VISUAL

Images pulled from movement, memory, and interruption. Studies in light, depth, and distortion. Work built from the urge to see what happens next.

FORM

Objects, systems, and structures under tension. Where function bends into expression. Tests built to reveal how materials behave when pushed.

MOTION

Frames driven by rhythm and atmosphere. Loops, pulses, and shifting perspectives. Pieces meant to be felt before they’re understood.

“Whether on paper or pixels, the goal is constant — design that disappears as the story appears, letting the work speak without shouting for attention” — AK

STUDIO CHAT WITH DANIEL MOORE

Adam talks about breaking form, chasing rhythm, and shaping thought into images.

Recorded AT CAM66 Studios London in 24 November 2025

15 minutes, 13 seconds

Digital Media

Modus vivendi 

A delicate balance of stillness and movement, presence and absence. It captures bodies in transformation, suspended in quiet resistance.

Showing until 10 March 2026

Tate Modern Exhibition

Bankside, London SE1 9TG

CONCEPT / MOTION ART

CONTEMPORARY/

MOTION CONCEPT

A study in rhythm, distortion, and controlled imbalance. Surfaces react to movement. Movement reshapes the frame. The piece shifts between clarity and noise, revealing patterns you only see when they break.

"Perfection is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.”

— Antoine de Saint-Exupery

I make work across image, form, motion, and text.

Most projects start with a rule. Experience triggers the next step.

SOCIALS

I’m a UK-based visual artist.
My practice is driven by experiments, systems, and iteration. Some work resolves quickly, Others evolve over time.
