Jasmine Jan
Visual Artist & Conservation Advocate | Darwin, Australia
Jasmine Jan is an award-winning mixed media artist and wildlife educator based in Lambells Lagoon, Northern Territory. Combining illustration, mixed media, decades of experience in wildlife conservation education, interpretation and community engagement she conceptualizes artistic installations and exhibitions. Jasmine focuses on telling stories of the natural world, raising awareness of the need to protect ecosystems against climate change and species extinction.
A Churchill Fellow and recipient of the Georgie Waterman Award (2023) for contributions to natural history interpretation, Jasmine has developed and project managed award-winning initiatives such as the Crocheted Coral Reef, Felted Forest Atlas Moth, and Adelaide River Slow Stitched Community Quilt for the Territory Wildlife Park in Darwin, NT. These collaborative projects engaged local communities and artists, blending art with environmental storytelling. Recently, her mangrove ecosystem installation—crafted from recycled denim and featuring stitched, needle-felted and illustrated depictions of Darwin’s coastal wildlife—caught national attention, earning a 2025 exhibition at Questacon, Australia’s premier science museum.
Jasmine’s global perspective, honed through fellowships and technique training in the USA, Italy, Singapore, Thailand and Indonesia, informs her dynamic practice. Her studio-gallery, nestled in Lambells Lagoon wetlands, serves as a creative hub for exhibitions and workshops, further cementing her role as a mixed media environmental artist.
