Gusty Ferro is a cross-disciplinary artist whose practice investigates the interplay between architecture, the body, and the materiality of everyday objects. Working across sculpture, drawing, video, sound, and installation, Ferro often explores urban infrastructure, displacement, and the physical and emotional weight of environments.
