Anton Pettigrew

Montreal, Quebec, Canada

Anton is a Montreal-based artist whose artistic journey began with a Bachelor's degree in Communication: Interactive Media at UQAM in 2008. After exploring the realm of digital art, he was drawn to the tactile and tangible experience of materials, which led him to turn to ceramics. Continuing his studies and conducting research in his own studio in Montreal, he focused on surface treatment, particularly delving into glaze exploration. This exploration ultimately led him to discover a new passion for glass.

In 2024, Anton completed his studies in glass at Espace Verre, also in Montreal. His work, which is both technical, conceptual, and functional, explores the boundaries between art, crafts, and design, while integrating a performative approach in some of his pieces. Anton is also the founder of Terrorcotta Studio, a space dedicated to the design and fabrication of functional art objects, which fosters interdisciplinarity, collaboration, and innovation.
