White Paintings

While typically bold and adventurous in her explorations of color, Ferrante has chosen a more subdued palette to work from in this series created while on residency at Brooklyn's Trestle Gallery. A spectrum of blue, pink, yellow, green, and violet underpaintings are all but rendered invisible with white and earth-toned surfaces. Rather than the density of the urban environment that she tends to portray, these new paintings are more suggestive of the earliest brimming of Spring mosses, barks, and lichens
