The source of my artistic influences stems from the diverse and substantial cultural history of European visual arts, coupled with the distinctive, wide-ranging, historical roots of Cypriot creative traditions, which inspire me to form inimitable and solicitous works.

Hun Adamoglu was born in Cyprus in 1975. His family moved to London, UK in 1980 where the artist grew up. He graduated from Southampton Solent University with B.A. Fine Art degree in 1998.

Hun started his career as a foundry technician before setting up his studio Adamoğlu Atelier in North London in 1998. Throughout his early career the artist engaged in various art projects, from creating handmade pattern designs for the textile industry to illustrating publications. Between 2009 and 2012 he travelled internationally to advance his art practice and has spent periods of time in the Netherlands, Italy, Switzerland and the United States. At the same time, the artist started building his own body of works, primarily oil paintings and graphite illustrations depicting humanity and emotional verism.

The artist’s portfolio includes over a hundred of exclusive fine art works, paintings and drawings. Over thirty of his illustrated works have been published in international newspapers, and five published book editions feature the artist’s illustrations and designs.
