Her work highlights the beauty of our present, illuminating the ephemerality of its very existence, of our human existence. Ferrante was born and raised in Long Island, NY, and earned her Bachelor's degree in Art and Theater from Northeastern University. Her work has been exhibited locally, nationally, and internationally. She has been featured in publications such as Hamptons Art Hub, Les Femmes Folles: Women in Art, and ArtSlant.
