Christopher Pearson

Christopher Pearson is a contemporary artist specialising in printmaking and sculpture.

Currently, Pearson is studying to enter the profession of the conservation of art, with a focus on prints, books, and other works of art comprised of paper. He completed the International Academic Projects: Chemistry for Conservators qualification between September and December 2024, passing with distinction.

As a trained printmaker, Pearson has developed his skills over many years, using etching, collagraph, carborundum, viscosity, wood-cut, photo-polymer, and silkscreen processes, as well as book-binding. In a nutshell, Pearson’s conceptual concerns comprise alchemy and transformation, time and rhythm, materiality and its performance, and staging an interplay between different image-making techniques.

Since November 2024, Pearson has worked at L. Cornelissen & Son, the artists' colourmen. Before this, he was a Printer at Thumbprint Editions from May 2022 to November 2024, and printed at East London Printmakers as an artist-member from January 2020 to December 2022.

He is an MA Fine Art graduate from Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London (2017-19) and a BA (Hons) Art & Design graduate from the School of Design, University of Leeds (2013-17).
