Fergus Berney-Gibson is an artist and writer. He is interested in how the narrative of the hero’s journey can be used to cross-examine the relationships between gender and power. This enquiry is pursued through printing, casting, and photography, returning repeatedly to the processes of transference, degradation and reconstruction.
