Jardin Des Tuileries 2022 Synthetic polymer paint, ink and collage with copper metallic leaf and UV gloss varnish on canvas, framed in natural oak 154cm x 204cm $15,000
Antoinette Ferwerda Gallery is proud to release Jardin, an exhibition of new artworks inspired by the Tuileries Gardens in Paris.
In the warm autumn days of September in 2022, Antoinette travelled to France, immersing herself in Parisian life whilst staying in Saint Germain des Pres. Her daily walks through her local surrounds led her to the Tuileries Gardens, located between the Louvre and the Place de la Concorde in the 1st arrondissement of Paris. The gardens offered open spaces and quiet moments to sit and observe people, nature and the wide, open sky set against the ornamental and palatial architecture.
Jardin is a celebration of the beauty of the Tuileries Gardens. A vibrant and fresh body of new works pays homage to flowers and foliage, where Mother Nature’s rich colours and textures are preserved forever in glorious palettes within luminous paintings.

Antoinette Ferwerda is a mother, a gallery owner and an Australian artist known for creating bold artworks with a masterful use of colour and texture.
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.
