Maxwell Pearce is a mixed media artist and a Harlem Globetrotter who challenges how we perceive humanity in and out of sports. After experiencing a deeply inappropriate live interview with Alabama television anchors that had racist undertones, Pearce channeled the extreme backlash he received into an artistic celebration of athletes. His artwork communally reveres the multi-dimensionality of the human under the jersey. Pearce recently exhibited his work at N’namdi Contemporary for Miami Art Basel 2022, Prizm Art Fair for Miami Art Basel 2023, and NBA Allstar weekend in Indianapolis.
