About Adam Bridgland
Since graduating from the Royal College of Art in 2006, Adam Bridgland has used a diverse range of materials and working methods to explore distinctively British sentiments with incisive and often witty clarity. His work frequently externalises feelings of nostalgia and the bittersweet passing of time, drawing on fading memories of British backpackers’ holidays, childhood seaside breaks, and old-fashioned bus tours.
Alongside these themes sits an upbeat celebration of imagery inspired by children’s colouring books, paint-by-numbers kits, transport posters and kitsch postcards. Adam brings these everyday subjects to life with carefully chosen, richly applied primary colours, treating them with the importance of emblems — often centred, framed, or paired with text to focus the viewer’s attention.
