after Anti Fame I like to do things for kicks...money is the after
effect I don't waste my time with people who don't live their
dreams. I don't fuck with unhappy people @ all. ...and if you want to invite me somewhere, make sure it's somewhere that I would want to be.

I'm an
Artist/Designer/Weirdo....but not Real wierd....just a little bit.
I have delusions of grandeur. For Some Reason People
Love to talk to me & give me their $$money$$
I am all & I am nothing.
I was born in the big bang & I will die in the great contraction.
I create stuff...what ever pops into
& out of my mind.

ARTIST STATEMENT: THE DIVINE QUEST of ADAH I create all types of stuff.... But lately, I like to run
around causing trouble, generating ideas, playing with my puppets & polishing my guillotine while Babylon burns. I don't have any solutions for all of the fucked up things that's going on in the world-- but I do have some
lighter fluid & a match, ya' dig? I'm a urban hermit that only feels like being bothered about once every ten
years. My daily is life is stranger than fiction, but being the mother of Urban, Hannibal, Cyrus,
& Sebastian keeps me grounded in reality. My kids rock! Outside of my mother & wifely duties, I am the CEO of the
Adahma Corporation and proprietor of Adahma Studio in Los Angeles where I hatch all my plans & schemes for global domination....just
for my amusement. I've been a lot of different people @ different points in time....and I
guess some of you are just figuring that out. I have embarked on a journey to be me and to keep discovering me. And where
ever that path leads…that is what I will be doing until further notice.
