Peter Anton


American sculptor Peter Anton is best known for his works depicting sweets. However, he is also responsible for a number of delicacies from the realm of the savory. He creates his oversized sculptures in his studio in Conneticut from various materials such as glue, wood and plaster. The hyper-realistic works invite the viewer to discover details: a bitten-off chocolate, a bubble in a fried egg, or dripping chocolate. His works celebrate the joy of eating with bright colors.
