ADAM DAVIS

Adam Davis is an educator, advocate, artist, and collaborator passionate about creative and communicative storytelling as a tool for advancing diverse and equitable cultural progression at the intersection of the arts and education. Originally from Brooklyn, with deep ties to Long Island, Queens, and every place his travels take him, Davis began his photography journey in 2012 with an iPhone and a budding obsession with exploring New York City. That early fascination grew into a lifelong creative pursuit, solidified during a challenging period at a university in West Virginia and further developed through connections with the creative community in Los Angeles. Working from a small studio apartment in Koreatown—with the steadfast support of his service dog, Carmen, and a vibrant network of collaborators—Davis honed his practice in both intimate studio environments and the darkroom. He is a 2024–2026 Tulsa Artist Fellowship awardee and currently resides in Tulsa, Oklahoma. [updated summer 2025]
