With a background in fine art, B. J. Adams current work is realistic
and in some instances surrealistic. Her images are first drawn on
paper. She then uses a sewing machine to create that exact image with
thread.
Adams work has been shown in many international art exhibits
including The 9th International Triennale of Tapestry in Lodz,
Poland, Nos Plus Belles Histoires Brodees at the Folk Art Museum in
Paris, and Art of the Stitch in London as well as the Art in
Embassies programs. Nationally her work has been exhibited in The
Textile Museum in Washington, DC and in three Quilt Nationals,
Celebrating the Stitch, The Full Deck and many other venues.
B. J.'s work is in the collection of many public buildings including
The Art Institute of Chicago, Disney’s ESPN Zone in D.C., Bellsouth
Corporation in Atlanta, Kaiser Permanente in Washington, DC, and
Alabama Power and Light in Birmingham, Alabama. She has been awarded
two grants from the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities and
several awards for individual works in various exhibits
