Astro work

Adam began his journey as an artist/photographer by creating miniature dioramas and photographing the sets. In 2016, he began creating miniature exoplanets and planetary landscapes that he also photographed. To date, he has photographed over 600 exoplanets. Since 2018, he has collaborated with the Keck Observatory in Hawaii, creating conceptual astronomical work for them, including miniatures/photographs and animations.  His astronomical work has been featured in The New York Times, Scientific American, National Geographic, Epsilon magazine, Ciel & Espace, Tahdet Ja Avaruus, and Wired.  

Additional Work - concept work and set design

STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS - Miniature set design miniature for ice planet

ASH (starring Aaron Paul, and Eiza González) - Miniature set design work; look of entire planet. 

I began this project by chance in 2016 when I needed to create planets for backdrops on another project at the time. Then it took off from there, initially influenced by the idea of making art every day with a project I could post to Instagram.  

I aimed to make/photograph a thousand exoplanets, but I’ve only photographed just over 700 …with 300 to go. Can I do it before the 10-year mark? I’ve made way more than a thousand, though, but many are duds (failed experiments).  I didn’t think this was going to take this long.. I thought wrong! I guess I was too ambitious. 

This book is for the curious, art collectors, miniature enthusiasts, space lovers, scientists, and inquisitive minds.  It’s a journal, a catalogue, and a journey through the process.  This project includes collaborations, behind the scenes, and an interview with one of the top exoplanet scientists in the world: Sara Seager. It’s 185 pages of carefully selected images. Thanks to everyone who supported me along the way I could not have done this without you! >>>>>> CLICK HERE FOR BOOK
