Antoinette Ferwerda is a mother, a gallery owner and an Australian fine artist known for creating bold artworks with a masterful use of colour and texture. Her wish at 3 years old was to become an artist, and after a rich journey with many twists and turns – studying visual communication, working in the pharmaceutical industry, dipping her toes into the fashion world – she now runs her eponymous Brighton gallery and creates an inspiring output of original artworks. Using her signature collage techniques and captivating eye for colour, her work explores abstract and metaphysical interpretations of the natural world and the wide range of life forms that call it home. Her art is represented in Melbourne, Sydney, New York, London, and Berlin.
