Adrian Freuen<\/a> is the artist behind the beautiful work on display at our SODO location<\/a>. Adrian came to Macrina with the idea that his art would naturally blend into conversation and capture people\u2019s attention as they mingled with friends over breakfast or lunch.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wanted the viewer to live with my work,\u201d says Adrian. \u201cShowing in a cafe as opposed to a gallery allows the viewer to appreciate the art in a relaxed, authentic setting.”<\/p>\n

\"07Freuen\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Born into a family of doctors and artists, Adrian grew up listening to his father tell stories of the day\u2019s surgical procedures at the dinner table. While many people would react in disgust to these sometimes-repugnant tales, Adrian found the stories inspiring. But, instead of following in his father\u2019s footsteps, Adrian used his inherited knowledge of scientific hypotheses and methods to fuel his artistic drive. Although Adrian uses a mixed media to produce each piece, a landscape viewed through a scientific lens is unmistakeable in his work.<\/p>\n

\u201cI usually change the technique, because I see that it can offer a particular aesthetic,\u201d explains Adrian of his creative process.\u00a0\u201cThe technique becomes a tool as to what I want to achieve at that particular moment.\u00a0Once I come to a spot where I am satisfied and feel that the work is conveying a particular observation I stop.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"12Freuen\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Having first realized his artistic aspirations as a high school student, it’s fitting that Adrian currently teaches art at Archbishop Murphy High School<\/a>\u00a0and Everett Community College<\/a>. For him, teaching and creating go hand in hand.<\/p>\n

You can view Adrian\u2019s work at our SODO location through the end of May, and then at our McGraw caf\u00e9<\/a>\u00a0for the entire month of June.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
