Adriana Wynne

Adriana Wynne (b. 1997) is a French-American artist working across sculpture, design, and painting. Born in the United States and now based in London, she received her MA in Sculpture from the Royal College of Art in 2023 and her BFA from Parsons School of Design in 2020. Her dual background in fine art and design shapes a practice that moves fluidly between conceptual investigation and material experimentation.

Wynne’s work explores the space between the internal and external body, transforming emotion, sensation, and abstract experience into physical form. Centering materiality, she uses texture, structure, and organic form to reimagine the body as fluid, fragmented, and emotionally charged. Her approach extends naturally into design, where functionality becomes an extension of sculpture. Through playful experimentation and inventive use of materials, she creates objects that blur the boundary between the familiar and the uncanny, inviting both engagement and contemplation.

Wynne is the recipient of the 2023 Gilbert Bayes Award and a 2020 nominee for the Outstanding Student Achievement in Contemporary Sculpture Award. Her work has been featured in TWELV Magazine, God Save the Scene, London Gallery Week News, and Wheres The Frame, among others. She has exhibited in London at The Bomb Factory, Royal College of Art, Shipton Street Gallery, Black and White Gallery, and Somers Gallery, as well as in New York at 25 East Gallery, Sotheby’s, 25 Kent Ave, and 484 Broome Street. Her curatorial projects include In The Presence of Absence (2020), Abjection as Abstraction (2020), and Illuminating Forms (2023).
