“Texture, Movement, and Meaning: Inside Elishia Jackson’s Word”
Elishia Jackson is a multidisciplinary artist based on Wurundjeri land, Victoria. With a background in painting and collage, she now explores fibre art and sculptural basketry. Her earthy, tactile works—ranging from vessels to wall hangings—reflect warmth, movement, and a deep connection to authenticity and nature.
Elishia Jackson is a multidisciplinary artist living and working on Wurundjeri land in Victoria, Australia. With over 20 years of experience in the visual arts, her practice has evolved from painting, drawing, and collage into the world of fibre art and modern sculptural basketry.
Guided by a deep creative instinct, Elishia uses natural fibres and materials to craft vases, bowls, mobiles, sculptures, and wall hangings. Her work is both earthy and delicate—rich in texture, movement, and warmth—and reflects her belief in art as a way to live authentically and connect with our truest selves.
Her drawing skills are exceptional. The portraits she creates of African people are incredibly beautiful—so realistic that they look like photographs rather than paintings.
If you're interested in her designs, you can purchase them to decorate your home. To get in touch with her, feel free to reach out directly Elishia Jackson, Instagram
