Maxwell Pearce’s work emphasizes the multi-dimensionality of being an athlete and a total person. His textured mixed media pieces are often created out of sports equipment and shoelaces - which he believes to be the common thread between so many of us. His sculptures—each of which offers multiple points of view—maintain historical and contemporary references through inspirations like important people, moments, ideas, family members, and also athletes. His perspective as a professional athlete and an artist gives him a very unique vantage point. Further, Pearce intends for his works to act as form of social practices engaging society to reflect on meaning, material, and movement.
