Anthony Thompson's low relief Wall Installations fuse certain aspects of painting and sculpture. In talking about his work Thompson says, "Painting is stuck with an illusionism that sculpture doesn't have to deal with. My attempt is to make the elements in my work so physically real that they are able to contradict this inherent illusionism."
