About the Artist
Spirit Adams is a multidisciplinary artist, archivist, food futurist, farmer, and storyteller whose work exists at the intersections of history, sustainability, and culture. Their practice is deeply rooted in honoring ancestral knowledge, preserving Black legacies, and reimagining the future through art, food, and land stewardship.
Adams specializes in archival storytelling, curatorial work, and immersive installations that blend found objects, raw materials like soil and iron, and cultural symbolism. The artist is particularly known for creating spaces—whether physical or conceptual—that hold memory, ritual, and reverence. Their curations, such as the Brioxy at Mama Koko’s and a food archive installation at The Last Resort Artist Retreat x Black Baltimore Digital Database, embody this dedication to honoring lineage and fostering communal dialogue.
