Jarnah Montersino
Textile
b. 1984, Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia
Lives and works in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
Jarnah Montersino is an Australian multidisciplinary artist whose practice explores materiality, memory, and connection. Working primarily with textiles and everyday materials, she employs processes of transformation to reveal the narratives embedded within the ordinary. Informed by a background in social science, human rights, art, and design, her work moves between personal and collective experience, engaging themes of care, resilience, and repair. Montersino's practice is defined by a sustained focus on material sensitivity and process, contributing to contemporary conversations around form, meaning, and shared experience.
Montersino has exhibited in solo and group exhibitions, with work held in private collections in Australia and internationally. She is the recipient of The Ian Potter Cultural Trust emerging artist grant and has recently completed a residency with Etesian Gallery in Menorca, Spain (2026).
