Loren Adams talks about his new Art-form by Loren D. Adams, Jr.

The Stabile Objet d’art

Painting the sea is a process of knowing myself and the many different moods and my complete emotional content
because to me they are one and the same in context. The ever changing and relentless movement of the water and the
dancing light on the surface in the endless variations would prove to be the best of subjects for me to study and master
because it contains all shape and form with the light as the featured subject in almost every painting.

Even before I started making Art full time I was already in pursuit of mastery and I always had the attitude of making
a masterpiece each and every time I started any painting. To me, starting with the idea of making a masterpiece was a
mindset that I endured throughout the process and I just knew that if I held that thought while I was working I would also
indeed make a masterpiece.

Complicated pictorial content and advanced compositions with one or even multiple vanishing points and dimensions
that took weeks to figure out let alone render by hand, I can accomplish flawlessly in minutes these days without too much
difficulty. It’s safe to say that I have mastered my craft and now I’m attempting to do work that requires many more kinds
of discipline like my new Art form that has become more challenging and more fulfilling as I get older and wiser.

Making one of my Stabile Objet d’art is a multi dimensional task that takes all of my undivided attention to detail and
in this Art form I can say that time has absolutely no meaning and to me that makes it “my dream come true.”

The 3-D three sided sculptural Stabile Objet d’art

Each of my sculptural stabile objects have three sides and they are portals to these three different aspects of mans
relationship to life and human evolution: The Natural World, The Cultural World, and The Spiritual world.

Each of these aspects is relative to a specific tribe of the descendants of one of the original twelve tribes that have
been on this planet since the beginning of time and those three aspects of nature, culture and Spirit. This is the reason
that each one of my stabiles has or will have three portals.

The Natural World will always portray the natural environment, landscape or a depiction of what would be or could
have been how it was for those people to live in and be a part of every day.

The Cultural World portrays the culture and the important elements of that time period and what that tribe may have
accomplished with their tools and traditions as they evolved over a period of time, since cultures take time to develop.

The Spiritual World portrays that cultures’ journey back to the creator or the journey back to the City of God AKA
The Citadel Divine – in plain English a picture of how that tribe related to the concept of the creator.

The natural propensity of any given people in these three aspects is then a continuum that is inherent in those people
throughout history; their general characteristics’, cultural and spiritual concerns rarely change in comparison to a one
world view of the human evolution.

It is the purpose of my work to help widen the planetary cultural base to see both our differences and the wonderful
phenomenon we know as the life we all share in spite of our differences. My goal is to display what I have learned about
what we have in common––no matter what labels, titles, or symbols we may worship as a single society. In other words:
“What it does mean to all of us.”
