Jacqueline Ferrante is a visual artist based in New York and Italy. Her work is rooted in a deep connection to the surfaces of the natural world, capturing their textures as a way to explore place, memory, and the passage of time. Through mark-making with locally sourced natural materials, Ferrante’s practice reflects the interplay between history and change, revealing the beauty of imperfection and the quiet stories embedded in the landscape. Her recent solo exhibition, URBAN SKIN, curated by Francesca Rossi, explored architectural and cultural memory using materials such as charcoal, wine, and mineral pigments to evoke the layered surfaces of the city as a living archive. Ferrante was born and raised on Long Island, NY, and earned her degree in Art and Theater from Northeastern University. Her work has been exhibited throughout the United States and Europe, and she has completed residencies in New York, Ireland, and Italy. Her work is also included in The Haemimont Foundation collection, with locations in New York and Sofia, Bulgaria.
