Peter's Series: Back
2008
A serene and contemplative swimming pool scene rendered in smooth, luminous oil paint, depicting the calm surface of water from an intimate vantage point. Anderson's meticulous attention to light and reflection creates a quietly charged atmosphere, evoking themes of leisure, memory, and the complexities of race and belonging. The work is part of Anderson's ongoing Peter's Series, which draws on personal and cultural history to explore the coded social spaces of mid-century swimming pools.
