Biography
The child of a neuroscientist, D'Adamo grew up fascinated with biology, complex systems and the relationship between art making and learning. She studied philosophy and the history of science at St. John's College in Maryland. She earned her BA in Visual Art and Philosophy at Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University, graduating with honours. She has an MA in Art Education from SFSU and is currently completing a doctorate at University of Nebraska in Lincoln, focused on teaching and learning through trans-disciplinary art and arts-based research methods. She has won numerous awards as both a teacher and as a painter. D'Adamo's newest body of work explores making thinking visible and the structures of the brain.
