Adam Inzalaco is a New York based artist whom studied fine art at Stony Brook University. Here, he would develop a focus in sculpture within the Fine Art Program at SBU. Throughout his time here, Inzalaco would develop a strong understand of a wide array of materials and media including steel, bronze, wood working, ceramics, and many more.

Throughout his academic career, he would often focus his assignments to revolve around the topic of entomology. He would design works to bring attention to various species of insects’ impressive anatomy as well as address the importance in which insects play in the planet’s ecosystem.

In addition to studying at University, he would begin a short internship at the Long Island Exhibition Center in Riverhead, NY. Here, Inzalaco would work alongside the lead entomologist to gather a better understanding for the animals that he had been studying on his own for the duration of his time as an art student. It is at the Exhibition Center which Inzalaco would learn how to pin, articulate, and mount all sorts of species of insects ranging from beetles to butterflies and mantids to phasmids.

After his time at SBU, he would use the knowledge he gathered at both University and the Exhibition Center to design insect displays. Thus, Dead Leaf Designs was born. At this point, Inzalaco’s passion became an obsession and continues to use this as the main driving point to make high quality hand made displays.
