Adrian MM Abela studied architecture and civil engineering in Malta and Milan and received an MFA in sculpture from UCLA. He currently lives and works in Los Angeles. Abela's practice meanders between poetry and metaphor, to provide situations in which to share visceral experiences of the here and now with its multiple histories and possible futures. His endeavours stem from curiosities around encountered materials and/or narratives in the waking and/or dreaming states. Using science and inspiration he questions identity, self or the notion of knowledge, while dancing around paradoxes regarding the awareness of being a system harbouring and forming part of a self-similar system.
