Jacqueline Ferrante is a visual artist based in Brooklyn, NY. Her work is informed by the natural decay of surfaces in the urban environment. She investigates the relationship between color, texture, and form as they deteriorate over time. Her work re-creates and imitates these surfaces through the process of layering, rubbing, and stripping paint. These techniques function as a gesture towards the forgotten beauty in the world around us.
Ferrante was born and raised in Long Island, NY and received her B.A. in Art and Theater Production from Northeastern University in 2013. Her work has been exhibited at locally and nationally. Upcoming exhibitions and projects include Winter Salon at VSOP Art + Design Projects in Greenport, Long Island (artist, December 2017) and Member Salon 2018 at Trestle Gallery (curator, June 2018).
