The Vancouver-based figurative collective Phantoms in the Front Yard are exploring the spaces between strangers and familiars for their next show at the Burrard Hotel for a one-night-only exhibition of miniature pieces – 10x10 inches and much smaller!
This show’s guests are the internationally recognized multi-media and installation artist Christian Nicolay; and the award-winning, classically trained master of both figure and portrait Mandy Boursicot.
Little pieces, little prices, little duration. Come and spend hardly any of anything with us.

Founded in 2010, Phantoms in the Front Yard (PITFY) is a Vancouver-based figurative artist collective focused on elevating the human figure’s role as muse in the Canadian contemporary art scene. The diverse collective features artists from a broad range of career stages, and takes a unique, collaborative approach to developing and exhibiting figurative work. PITFY shows take place in unusual settings and are shorter than typical exhibitions, creating excitement around figurative art for all, not just among academics and industry veterans.
Phantoms in the Front Yard
featuring:
Michael Abraham, Jeremiah Birnbaum, Jay Senetchko, Marcus Macleod, Paul Morstad, and Jonathan Sutton,
in collaboration with curator Pennylane Shen, and select guest artists.
For each of our shows one group member artist proposes a theme that the entire group then develops work around.
The collaborative nature of this process continues to result in exciting work from exhibition to exhibition.
