Adrian is a pioneering textile artist whose work explores queerness, desire, and consumerism. He finds inspiration in a variety of sewing-related crafts like quilting, bag making, inflatables, costume design, puppetry, drag, and fetish wear.
Inspired by experimental work that crosses disciplines and considers the body in compelling ways, Adrian’s hand-sewn construction and piecework sculptures pop in bold colors and a tactile materiality that references the body and form in unexpected ways, evoking moods and conversations about desire, consumer culture and queerness.
Mutability, transformation, and playfulness are consistent themes throughout his work. These concepts serve as an important reminder that something, or someone, is more complex than the initial impression we develop. Adrian's postmodern playscapes interrogate the ways in which the things we desire impact a sense of personal identity and community building in a culture of hyper stimulation.

Signals That Sound In The Dark invites viewers into Hargrove's inner world, encouraging them to recognize the unique creatures that inhabit their own minds and to consider their own responses to music and art and reflect on how sound influences their perceptions. In this exhibition, Hargrove blurs media to communicate complex narratives and foster shared experiences in order to remind viewers of the beauty that emerges when we allow our minds to be free.
