What PHER Produces

PHER produces limited works—prints, objects, and experimental editions—created through direct collaboration and shared risk. These are not open-ended runs or decorative exercises. Each release is small by design, documented with intention, and circulated with context intact.

Nothing is made casually.
Nothing is released accidentally.

The work carries:

  • Clear authorship

  • Defined editions

  • Provenance and documentation

  • A refusal to be overexplained or softened

PHER does not chase markets or trends. It produces artifacts that can withstand time, scrutiny, and discomfort.

Why PHER Exists

PHER exists as a counterweight—to overproduction, to branding without substance, to political art stripped of consequence. It is a place where artists can work in dialogue, without consensus pressure, and where disagreement sharpens the outcome rather than diluting it.

When institutions hedge, PHER commits.
When others seek shelter, PHER draws the storm.

This is not a collective built for scale.
It’s a platform built for impact.

A Living Signal

PHER is not loud by default—but it is unmistakable. The work leaves a trace, invites conversation, and resists easy categorization. It is meant to live in studios, on walls, and in rooms where people are willing to sit with complexity.

PHER is where pedigree meets pressure.
Where street cred meets institutional memory.
Where collaboration becomes object.

PHER is an artist-led production platform built on trust, risk, and consequence. It exists where comfort ends—where work is made because it has to be, not because it’s safe to do so.

PHER is the result of an ongoing collaboration between Peregrine Honig and Eddie Roque—two artists from different regions, generations, and reputations, aligned by a shared refusal to dilute process for approval.

We are not an umbrella.
We are the lightning rod.

Pedigree Meets Pressure

Peregrine Honig brings decades of institutional presence, critical recognition, and deep roots in contemporary art. Her work has lived inside museums, collections, and serious discourse—earned through longevity, rigor, and refusal to compromise her voice. Eddie Roque brings the opposite pressure point: street-level authorship, protest lineage, and real-world consequence. His practice is forged in public space—murals, pop-ups, garments, and gatherings that don’t ask permission and don’t hide behind neutrality. PHER exists precisely because both positions are necessary.
