| 'For me, the impulse to make art usually translates into either a sustained period of work and reflection on a particular three-dimensional object, or a series of drawings that evolve over several weeks. Occasionally though, an idea may come into being more fleetingly, as when recognising a potential slippage of meaning when passing through a familiar environment. Equally, a work might be suggested by a momentary impression of the uncanny, or the dubious authenticity of an object. At these times, it may be that the sculptural idea is better recorded or recreated photographically, or that the photographic is brought into the sculpture.' |

| Nick Pearson's art practice is mainly in the areas of sculpture and drawing. He lives and works in London. Recent group shows include 'Sitting Room' (2007-09), a touring exhibition at Alsager Arts Centre, Manchester Metropolitan University, Ruskin Gallery in Cambridge, and venues in The Netherlands, Mexico and USA; 'Drawing' (2005), at Central Space Gallery, London; and 'Rien à Déclarer', at Kingsgate Gallery, London (2005) and at La Faiencerie, Bordeaux (2004). |
