Semmi Adam is an unassuming 21st-century contemporary painter of light and shade, whose paintings are characterized by the use of very good brushstrokes and palette knives to dig deep into colours before application. He is a philosopher who is trying to share ideas and communicate knowledge through art. Semmi Adam's paintings depict people going about their everyday activities in Chiaroscuro, a style common among the European painters of yesteryears. The knowledge of painting is not new to us, but the expressions in Semmi's painting remain outstanding and focused. He has carefully, intelligently watched his demarche and could be seen vividly on his paintings. His paintings are meant to educate and entertain, predict the future, interrogate policies or human behaviour, question belief and so on.
