Martine Jackson

South African 1979- 

Martine Jackson is a ceramic artist based in Cape Town. She was introduced to clay by her late mother, the renowned ceramicist Barbara Jackson, at the young age of five. Martine is known for her distinctive organic-shaped vessels, bold pattern language and rich, glazed surfaces. She approaches each piece primarily as a sculptural medium whose dynamic tension comes from the interplay of three-dimensional form and two-dimensional surface.

Martine graduated from the University of Cape Town’s Michaelis School of Fine Art in 2000. Her work has been selected for Southern Guild’s annual collections regularly since 2010, and also appeared at 100% Design South Africa. Martine recently participated in a group show at SMAC, Stellenbosch, and has exhibited internationally in New York, London, Oslo and Hamburg. Commissions include work for Singita luxury safari lodges, the owner of Delaire Graff, and the V&A Waterfront Marina, a cluster of nine apartment buildings in Cape Town.

Martine works and teaches at the Barbara Jackson School of Ceramics, founded in 1978.
