ABOUT THE ARTIST

ADAM LORUSSO

Tattoo Artist | Painter
Medford, MA | Boston, MA

“Artistic exploration has evolved into a practice of self-study. The act of making art allows a space to be created between the experience and the experiencer; a way to momentarily pause from consistently looking outward towards the external, and catch a glimpse of one’s internal world. This action has led to new understandings, and more importantly, new questions.”

Born and raised in Medford, MA, Adam LoRusso’s early years were spent drawing on the floor of his father’s art studio. His father, a wildlife sculptor, shared his knowledge and ignited Adam’s passion for making art.

After spending his teenage years drawing tour posters and making album artwork for the various bands he played in, Adam studied graphic design and studio art in college. Involvement in the metal music scene initially inspired Adam’s interest in tattoo culture and history. He would continue learning about the art and science of tattooing until accepting an apprenticeship in 2010.

Throughout the following decade, Adam fused his love for philosophical and diverse religious studies with his various artistic practices in order to further a quest for self-understanding. He is currently tattooing full time at his private space Last Light Tattoo Studio and painting at Porter Mill Studios in Beverly, MA. He also hosts drawing sessions and instructs Drawing as Meditation workshops at the Boston Figurative Art Center in Somerville, MA.

“When you walk, when you enjoy the morning sunshine, the trees, the friends, you don’t need thinking to do all that. We have to learn to be in a non-thinking mode in order to get in touch with the wonders of life. I think we all think too much.”
– Thich Nhat Hanh
