KF + CM 4EVER

Keltie Ferris
!@#$%^&*()
2010
Oil, acrylic, oil pastel & sprayed paint on canvas
80x80"

Keltie's work is non-verbal, more like noise then language, more akin to flashing lights and potential energies then anything nameable. Therefore each painting is titled by a set of punctuation marks, such as (((!!!))) created by the artist and are emblematic of the emotive, nearly expletive nature of her work. Other titles (including the title of the show) allude to bathroom graffiti, notebook valentines, as well as the ambition of marking a space and marking a future.
