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 most recent series, Tracce di StOria (2024), created in Oria, Italy, traces the city’s architectural and cultural memory through materials like charcoal, wine, and mineral pigments from the local land.

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.
