Artists

Z Gallery Arts represents a select group of contemporary artists whose practices are rooted in material intelligence, conceptual depth, and long-term artistic vision.

Our focus is on building meaningful relationships between artists, collectors, and institutions — supporting work that endures beyond trends and temporary visibility.

Each artist is presented through a curatorial relationship built on trust, serious practice, and sustained dialogue.

Selected works are available through private acquisition.

Ferle — Painting
Represented Artist
Ferle
Painter · Paris, France

Ferle is a Paris-based painter whose large-format abstract compositions on fine linen occupy a charged space between the gestural and the architectural. Her palette — deep cobalt, burnt ochre, layered earth tones — is immediately recognisable, each canvas the product of a slow, accumulative process of mark, erase, and overpainting.

Her work investigates the relationship between body, surface, and time. Represented by Z Gallery Arts — works available by enquiry.

Viewing by appointment only.

Celadon Vessel — Zohra Bonnis
Founder & Principal Artist
Zohra Bonnis
Curator · Gallerist · Ceramic Artist

Founder of Z Gallery Arts Inc., Zohra Bonnis has worked for years at the intersection of contemporary art, publishing, and curatorial practice, building long-term relationships between artists, collectors, and institutions.

Since 2016, through Z Gallery Arts, she has developed exhibitions, artist books, international art fair presentations, and private collector placements, with a focus on supporting serious artistic practices and creating lasting cultural dialogue.

Her ceramic practice emerged through years of study and training across France, Japan, Korea, China, and Canada, with a particular focus on porcelain, glaze research, and traditional material knowledge. Time spent in Jingdezhen, alongside Korean and Japanese ceramic traditions, continues to shape her studio practice and curatorial vision.

Her work moves between gallery and studio — between contemporary art and the discipline of making — with an emphasis on material intelligence, historical continuity, and the relationship between place and practice.

Today, her work extends between Vancouver and Porto Heli, Greece, where Z Gallery Arts develops seasonal workshops, artist residencies, and curatorial projects grounded in ceramics, contemporary art, and cultural exchange.

Selected works available through private acquisition.
