This in-between space and the gateways that lead to and from it have always permeated his work in many ways.

Scott Ferry was born and raised in Los Angeles, growing up in the colorful chaos of the 80's in the California subculture. He currently lives and works in Montreal, Canada.
His writing stems from over 18 years of experimental Chaos Magick, Buddhist Tantra practice, and Runic sorcery and divination. Drawing on techniques of automatic writing and surreal cut-up he developed a powerful way to describe the primal elements and how to access them simply, effectively, and humorously through the medium of a multifarious feminine entity.
Scott also works as a visual artist. His early drawings being in black and white pen using a stipple dot technique. His artwork is inspired by spirits, ghosts, possession, hypnotic and trance states, other worlds, childhood, magick, subtle disturbances, and nightmarish reflections.
