"Concerned with craft as much as concept, Anton carefully renders each detail of his sculptures, down to every last sugar crystal. 'I have an innate reverence for the things we eat. Food brings people together and there is no better way to celebrate life. The sensual nature of the works stimulates basic human needs and desires that generate cravings and passion.'"
