Adam is a Riyadh-based urbanist, artist, and civic policy innovator working at the nexus of art, public space creation, and civic institution building.

Adam’s artistic and policy interventions in places such as Cairo, Jerusalem, Riyadh, and Sharjah have focused on policies and programmes that take into account citizens’ rights, equity, cultural production, and environmental justice. As an artist, Adam’s work has been presented in cities as diverse as New York, Berlin, Cairo, Sharjah, Dubai, and Stockholm.

Most recently, his installation “Ibn Al-Omda” - which uses light-art and AI to create futuristic advertisements of Arab cities - was exhibited at Vienna’s prestigious Palais Festetics during NOISE Art Fair. Currently, Adam is developing a series of installations on Najdi-futurism while continuing to publish on art, public space, and urbanism.

Adam has degrees from the University of Chicago and MIT.
