"Darth Vader's summer home,"
"It's the only clean space I've ever been in,"

Ferguson moved into a newly renovated, minimalist studio shared with a photographer, featuring black floors, white walls, and black furniture. The studio is a half-hour walk from his home, enabling daily walking exercise and focused work time from late afternoon to early evening.

Examples include a clawed, bloodied merman amid jellies and icebergs and a snowbound, worm-like predator reflecting harsh winter vulnerability in Montreal.
