SCOTT FERRY - SWEET SOFT HAUNTING

Falling through tunnels of sensitive sweet memories, cute youth and soft touches.. 1979 boy white skin body and blondish hair.. i see each spirit in turn swirling around my body and yours.. purple then green.. they tell me of your wonders and your hells..

The liminal space where life and death mix and a hallucinatory other world opens up has always fascinated me. This in-between space and the gateways that lead to and from it have always permeated my work in many ways. The shade of what happens after death, the separation and the loss of things held dear, the entities that live between this world and that and the possibility of our metamorphosing into a more flexible nature. Much like a flower or child that dies quickly I have grown to understand how fragile life can be and how that can make us cling to the possible idea that there maybe an eternal life. But eternity is only interesting if it includes change. And why not, as an artist, learn to create my own reality which equates with my own changing belief structure and opens up many possibilities both to myself and to the viewer.

DECOVER magazine Montreal... Scott Ferry

I will pleasantly be in this issue of DECOVER magazine. (inside 2 page spread) The print version should be coming out today and the online version is currently up. (see below for links and distribution info) I am excited to see it in print.. have only seen the electronic versions.



Decover is a window into Montreal visual arts. Each issue will showcase ten portfolios to discover the creativity of today's artists. Decover to escape, to fill up with wonder, to grow along with rising talents. Our wish is to celebrate urban art with all its diversity, from painting to photo montage, from photography to sculpture, from illustration to graffiti. Decover is a platform for fine local treasures that will pleasure your eyes and spirit.

Decover est une vitrine sur les arts visuels. Dix portfolios par édition pour découvrir la créativité des artistes ici et aujourd'hui. Decover pour s'évader, s'émerveiller et grandir avec les pratiques émergentes. Une ouverture sur l'art urbain dans sa diversité, de la peinture au photomontage, de la photographie à la sculpture, de l'illustration au graffiti. Decover explore des trésors de sensibilité pour vos yeux et votre esprit.

Here is a google map of where the art mag I am in is distributed…

TEE HEE LA LA LA LA (Paintings on Usine 106U Gallery outside wall)

August 8 and 9, 2009 and then on the following weekend August 16 & 17, I took it upon myself to paint some characters from my artwork on the outside wall of Usine 106U Gallery. These are some photos of the result.

These can be seen at the following location:

Some interesting finds..

Found some interesting photos and carte de visite last weekend at the Marche au Puce in St-Michelle area (Montreal). Some of these photos are odd looking.. not even pretty in the conventional sense of features.. but interesting and a bit haunting. Some of these are more the Victorian period.. one of them is from it looks like around 1930s.

this photo.. which looks 1930s a bit.. is an overlapped photo.. accidental.. but it gives such an interesting effect!
