ABOUT
Adrian Till (b. 1996, Dachau, Germany) is a multidisciplinary visual artist whose practice is
shaped by movement, spatial experience, and material processes. His early engagement
with skateboarding fostered an acute awareness of rhythm, balance, and physical
presence in space—an approach that continues to inform his artistic thinking. Parallel to
this, graffiti introduced him to the public realm as a site of dialogue, reaction, and social
resonance.
​
Since 2015, Till has been working as an independent artist across painting, drawing,
sculpture, performance, and site-specific art. His practice evolved from urban interventions
toward an expanded engagement with architecture and spatial conditions, particularly
within abandoned industrial sites, vacant buildings, and transitional environments. These
spaces function as laboratories in which scale, duration, and material behavior become
central components of the work.
​
Materials play an active role in Till’s process. Walls, surfaces, and found elements absorb,
resist, or transform interventions over time. Layers emerge, disappear, and reconfigure,
emphasizing process over fixed outcomes. Painting, installation, and sculptural
approaches intersect, often unfolding over extended periods and responding directly to the
given site.
​
In recent years, Till’s work has increasingly incorporated rural contexts and natural cycles.
Experiences of cultivation, growth, decay, and renewal inform his understanding of artistic
processes as organic systems. Observation, care, experimentation, failure, and repetition
are integral to his methodology.
Till studied art history and philosophy, art education and sociology, as well as art and
multimedia with a focus on media informatics. He is a founding member and chairman of
Outer Circle e.V., an association dedicated to the promotion of contemporary art and
culture. His work has been exhibited nationally and internationally in Germany,
Switzerland, Austria, Czech Republic, India and Nepal. In 2018, he received the Dachau Design
Award for facade design. He lives and works in Bavaria, Germany.
