Margaret Holland Adams, The Bascom’s 2025 Photography Artist-in-Residence, examines themes of cultural identity, memory, and the evolving American South. Through a combination of analog photography, video installations, and new media, Adams creates compelling visual narratives that weave personal and collective histories.
Her work draws from southern vernacular traditions and oral storytelling, delving into issues such as environmental change, social justice, and the legacy of family and heritage. Adams’ innovative blend of traditional and contemporary techniques invites viewers to reflect on the complexities of place, memory, and cultural transformation.
