Adolfo Peralta (b. 1996) is a Rhode Island based painter and animator. His work employs the language of these long-established mediums to explore the complexities of his identity and experiences as a queer Latino individual. Through a multidisciplinary approach, he uses the body as a narrative tool to capture the fleeting, mundane and often overlooked moments and textures of life to inform his visual language that blurs the line between physical and metaphysical. Using images created in 3D landscapes, photos, and memory to inform his paintings, he navigates the intersections of the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of the human experience.

Adolfo Peralta received his BFA in Painting and a BA in Digital Media from Rhode Island College. His was part of the 2023-2024 WaterFire Accelerate Cohort, a year-long professional development program for emerging artists which concluded with a group exhibition at the WaterFire Arts Center in Providence, Rhode Island. His work has also been exhibited in the Providence Art Club, Rhode Island College (RIC), and the University of Rhode Island (URI).
