Hank Adams has a studio in upstate New York. His work has predominantly consisted of large-scale, figurative glass castings, but has also involved site-specific installations, performances, and community projects. He received a Fine Arts degree in painting from the Rhode Island School of Design and has attended other institutions for glass studies.

He often does visits  artist venues and teaches part-time throughout the country. He is represented by Elliott Brown Gallery in Seattle, WA, and Heller Gallery in New York City, and shows elsewhere in the US and abroad.
