She initially pursued her education at the Elam School of Fine Arts in Auckland before leaving New Zealand in the 1960s. She was accepted into both Saint Martin's School of Art and Camberwell School of Art in London. After completing her studies at Camberwell School of Art, Antoinette Godkin embarked on her career as the Director of Axiom Gallery in London, where she represented artists like Malcolm Morley, the inaugural recipient of the Turner Prize.
