Anthony Pearson is a Los Angeles based artist. He was born in 1969 and studied at the California College of Arts, where he began his creative work as a photographer. He himself says that he was dissatisfied with his photographic work because the “intensity of the real world could never be accurately rendered in photographs.” However, he quickly turned to material-based works, which are a mixture of sculpture and painting. Pearson himself calls his works “embedments,” which he casts from liquid hydrocal poured into frames.
