Simone Verfaille (b. 1995, Cape Town, South Africa) is a visual artist whose practice explores the interplay between memory, transformation, and self through layers of abstraction. Her work, grounded in abstract expressionism, is characterised by fluid brushstrokes, rich textures, and dynamic compositions.

For Simone, art is a living, intuitive process centered on experimentation and self-discovery. Focusing less on outcome and more on meaning, fulfilment, and resilience in the making process. She blends painting and textile-based abstraction to explore her inner landscapes.

Simone was named one of the ten winners of the WORLDART10 competition in 2024, and her recent body of work, spanning painting and textile-based abstraction, has been exhibited in both solo and group exhibitions across Cape Town. In 2023, she completed a solo residency in South West France, which further expanded her visual vocabulary and direction.

She currently lives and works in Cape Town.
