MFA Student Interview Series | Eric Adams

My first seminar’s weekly schedule rotates meeting between my private studio and the main art building, two miles away. We meet in individual studios and discuss each other’s progress on our work in two-week cycles.

First of all, I have to make it clear that the Justified Sinner is still alive and kicking. My website has gone offline whilst I change hosting companies due to a ludicrous hike in pricing at Small Business Host who previously hosted the sites.

Another busy and exciting week at the School of Jewellery. I knew it would be interesting but had never imagined that so much would be going on all the time!
