Aaron Ferguson is an Ottawa-based photographer and scanographer living with colour blindness (colour vision deficiency) and type 1 diabetes. He holds a Bachelor of Computer Science from the University of New Brunswick and a Certificate in Photography Techniques from Algonquin College. Through minimalist still life imagery, portraiture and street photography, his work resists the conformity of popular media platforms to challenge ideas of perception and visual representation. Employing an analytic and methodical approach, his artistic practice seeks to redirect our thought processes that are often subconsciously manipulated by external forces, with a focus on dismantling the hegemony of media influence on our daily lives. Ferguson's work has been exhibited three times as part of the annual juried SPAO A+ Exhibition (2018, 2020-2021). In 2018, his image “That Empty Feeling” won the People's Choice Award. Limited-edition prints and NFTs (non-fungible tokens) of his work are part of many private collections around the world. In March of 2021, Aaron became one of the first scanography artists in the world to sell NFTs. Collectors of his artwork include artists Fernando Gallegos and Alejandro Cartagena, and American entrepreneur Mark Cuban. https://linktr.ee/aaronrferguson https://opensea.io/collection/aaronferguson-muted https://foundation.app/@aaronrferguson https://www.aaronferguson.ca --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thewrongadvicepod/support

Second interview with Alejandro Cartagena - the first with live audio. We get to hear what's new and exciting with one of the worlds top fine art photographers.
In this episode of Perfect Bound, we learn that Alejandro Cartagena still has the pen I lent him six years ago in the pocket of his winter coat. We also learn he has 35 book projects in mind to be developed and that he has been able to harness a personal, inner tension to inspire a life's work in photography.Dominican-born photographer Alejandro Cartagena moved to Mexico, his mother’s birthplace, in 1990, and since then, he has developed a dynamic body of work exploring social, urban, and environmental issues, largely through the lens of the contemporary Mexican experience. His photographs frankly document new urban growth and altered landscapes—namely the proliferation of serially built homes and their ensuing environmental impact—on the outskirts of the Monterrey Metropolitan Area.
Alejandro Cartagena was born in the Dominican Republic in 1977 and lives and works in Monterrey, Mexico. His projects employ landscape and portraiture as a means to examine social, urban and environmental issues. Alejandro’s work has been exhibited internationally in more than 50 group and individual exhibitions in spaces including the Cartier foundation in Paris and the CCCB in Barcelona, and his work is in the collections of several prestigious museums including the San Francisco MOMA, The J. Paul Getty Museum and The Museum of Contemporary Photography in Chicago, among others.Alejandro is a self-publisher and co-editor and has created several award wining titles including A Small Guide to Home Ownership, The Velvet Cell 2020, Carpoolers, Self-published with support of FONCA Grant, 2014, Suburbia Mexicana, Daylight/ Photolucida 2010. Some of his books are in the Yale University Library, the Tate Britain, and the 10×10 Photobooks/MFH Houston book collections among others.Alejandro has received several awards including the international Photolucida Critical Mass Book Award, the Street Photography Award at the London Photo Festival, the Lente Latino Award in Chile, the Premio IILA-FotoGrafia Award in Rome and the Salon de la Fotografia of Fototeca de Nuevo Leon in Mexico among others. His work has been published internationally in magazines and newspapers such as Newsweek, Nowness, Domus, the Financial Times, The New York Times, Le Monde, Stern, PDN, The New Yorker, and Wallpaper among others. On episode 150, Alejandro discusses, among other things:How divorce led him to StoicismParenthood being the ‘most difficult thing you can bear’.Living in multiple paradigmsHis current excitement over poetryWhy he started ‘vandalising’ archive imagesLearning about photography through working in an archiveBeing an outsider as a kidHis new book A Small Guide to Home OwnershipWanting to make some books that are pop songs, not symphonies Referenced:Depeche Mode, Blashphemous RumoursGuillermo KahloEugenio Espino Barros Website | Instagram | Facebook “There’s nothing new about documentary photography, you just take pictures of what’s there, you know, but the opportunity of making it poetic or lyrical is to confront ideas that weren’t meant to be seen with each other. And that’s what’s exciting for me sometimes.”

"Like shooting in black and white it really is just trying to find a way to see all these tones of gray and to not see things so stark as good and bad or life and death…" Jesse Lenz and I talk about his first monograph, The Locusts. It is a gorgeous book that explores childhood wonder and discovery, beauty and terror, and memory and imagination, as well as the notions of what is family and home. As you will hear in our conversation, the process of making this work was part of a turning point in Jesse's life about what home means to him.

Para su obra más reciente, Alejandro Cartagena busca entre los basureros fotografías desechadas. Luego, con una navaja filosa, extirpa de las fotografías cuerpos, caras y otros detalles, reconfigurando la composición original ya sea, al desplazar los fragmentos recortados o retirarlos por completo. Las fotografías modificadas permanecen extrañamente completas y sorprendentemente familiares, obligando así al espectador a reflexionar sobre qué es lo que da significado a una fotografía. Su redistribución nos revela cómo los aspectos aparentemente cruciales de una fotografía —un rostro o un cuerpo— ocupan un lugar tanto central como accidental en nuestra capacidad para comprender las obras. Cartagena produjo obras de arte específicamente para esta exposición, dando a los visitantes del Eastman Museum la oportunidad de ver por primera vez las fotografías más nuevas de su más reciente obra.

For his latest work, Alejandro Cartagena sifts through landfills for discarded photographs. Then, with a sharp blade, he excises figures, faces, or other details from the photographs, reconfiguring the original composition by either moving the cut fragments or removing them entirely. The altered photographs remain strangely whole and strikingly familiar, compelling the viewer to consider what gives a photograph meaning. His arrangements reveal that seemingly crucial aspects of an image are both central and incidental to our ability to understand the works. Hear the artist talk about his work.
