Fiona Verity

Fiona Verity is a British-born, Australian artist based on Sydney's Northern Beaches, of the Garigal people. She explores diverse materials in her evolving art, mainly drawing, print, and painting, often blending these to create autobiographical narratives. Her work aims to politicise women's stories and express her feelings about people, places, and objects through observation, investigation, and emotion. Her images, drawn from memory and tactile interactions, shift between abstraction and improvisation, showcasing soulful, expressive mark-making. Personal yet expansive, bold yet thoughtful, her art invites reflection. Experimenting with various tools and materials, including charcoal, ink, paint, and now sewing and thread, she uses slow, tactile processes to think, feel, and connect, stitching fragments of time into layered works that evoke place, sensation, and memory.

Verity also co-founded the acclaimed arts podcast Art W**k, which has featured conversations with hundreds of artists and creative practitioners since 2021.
