"This is such a spectacular vision! I like this one very much - the clean lines, so disciplined and varied in form, the twist of metal and crystal like a fountain of ice and diamonds. Definitely a complex piece to execute! I can see a great deal of thought put into the details, color palette and materials. Bravo!"

~ Theresa Pope Church (American scientist)

"A STUNNER!!!"

~ Kenneth Radu (Canadian writer)

“Often the heads in his portraits look as if they have been sculpted and rendered supple by colour, lighting and textures, or constructed by an assemblage of artefacts and parts from disparate sources. I think of a recent and amusing work, Male Head with Bugle. Various items surround the face: an artificial-looking, theatrical white beard and a robotic-like hat with strap; crystals in a Fibonacci spiral serving as a symbolic bugle; and other metallic accoutrements. This is not an image of a person so much as it is an idea of a new kind of being, an android, a glitzy metaphor, even an inter-galactic messenger, announcing a spiritual or religious message to mere earthlings, its eyes hidden by a shield like the kind robocops wear.”

~ Kenneth Radu (Tricky Titles: Adamo Macri Portraits)

"Crystalline formations tempt you to become full cyborg, but keep your humanity for those who love you and whom you love too! Your works of art are even more beautifully poetic!"
