We Were The Places That We Wanted To Go

at Gallery 110 on October 3rd – November 7th 2019

Opening: Saturday October 5th 2019 3-8 pm

The Vancouver, BC based figurative arts collective Phantoms in the Front Yard, presents We Were the Places That We Wanted to Go. Reflecting on the concept of what constitutes legacy, the show explores the theme of passing life’s lessons down from one generation to the next.

Drawing from a range of contexts such as personal narrative, nostalgia, pop culture, and climate change, as well as using the figure as subject, the Phantoms invite the viewer to interpret the relevance, permanence, and affect legacy has on its inherent recipient.

Vancouver Mural Festival 2018

phantoms /

During the summer The Phantoms were involved in the Vancouver Mural Festival. Using a number of drawings from the contributing member artists a final composition was composed. The weather was perfect for the two weeks of steady ladder and lift work. All seven artists painted, often from early morning until nightfall, to complete this 24 x 90 foot wall! The mural is at 7th Avenue and Ontario Street.
Phantoms on a large scale!

Bad People – March 2017

Portraits of the Punishable – Miniatures Vol. 2

at Hot Art Wet City on March 2-17.

Opening: Friday the 3rd.

In our fantasies and our phobias. Onto our streets and into our mirrors. Down our alleys and our angers, under our bridges and our skins. In the prisons we fear and the cells we can’t escape.

Bad people.

Celebrating the final exhibition of Hot Art Wet City, Phantoms In The Front Yard reveal their dirty little pictures.

Come see the worst, the naughtiest, the darkest, the damnedest, the shady, the skittish, the last and the least, yourself. We know you’ll take a thing or two away. With miniature pieces and their miniature prices, it may even be some art.

Founded in 2010, Phantoms in the Front Yard is a Vancouver-based touring art collective with the mandate to challenge the contemporary Canadian art scene, reviving the human subject as muse. Figurative art has become the phantom of the fine art world, haunting both Modernism and Postmodernism with its ties to a classical tradition, refusing to be dismissed, ignored or forgotten.
