Humans are autonomous beings that both act on the world and create within it: we construct and have influence on our surroundings. But at the same time who we are, how we move through space, even the structures we build are all shaped in part by the environment of which we are a part. Adam Satushek looks at that dependent relationship through photography.

“My work investigates the interactions and integration into the world by humans. As I explore the space between what I assume about the world and the realities of how the world exists, I reconsider the relationships between these objects and their environment. I am attempting to understand my own place in the world.”

This work deals with our corporeal, precarious, and often hilarious relationship to our environment as it invites us to imagine the how, when, and why these particular interactions occurred. We wonder: how will these things change in the future?

Adam graduated from the University of Washington with a BFA in Photography in 2006 and has exhibited at Rake Gallery in Portland, OR, SAM Gallery, Gallery4Culture, and SOIL Gallery in Seattle. His work was part of a two-person show at Platform titled In Between Days in 2007. He lives in Seattle.
