Artist Paints the World Invisible

"Western Imports", by artist Cayetano Ferrer, uses inkjet prints to create site-specific optical illusions in public spaces.

"Ferrer uses existing forms in order to engage in a dialog about the constant flux of the built, contemporary environment. Using inkjet prints on existing objects/architecture that reveal what these objects ultimately obscure, Ferrer exposes the relationship between the built and the rebuilt, surface and hidden, as well as the delicate matter of history and memory as the present paves over the resent past in a bid to enrich economies. Ferrer's work is a gentle push/pull between permanence and obsolescence, inviting consideration of evolution, mutation and modification in our relationship to our immediate environment."- Three Walls
