I acknowledge the Kaurna people of lands on which I live and work. I acknowledge that this is stolen land and that sovereignty has never been ceded. I pay my respect to all elders past and present and recognise that this always was and always will be Aboriginal land.

Jazmine Deng is an early-career artist who lives on Kaurna Yarta (Adelaide). Her practice involves performance, video, installation, sculpture and painting.

Her processes and ephemeral work incorporate personal narratives, migrant identity and societal reflections in order to dissolve Eurocentric dominant world views.

Jazmine’s work is both expansive and interrogative. Her work is closely linked to her relationship to family, and relationship to the excess, ideals and spaces of the twenty first century.

She is a graduate from Adelaide Central School of Art (2021) in which she received the Board of Governors and Guildhouse Award for Excellence, and has been awarded the Mongolian International University artist-in-residence in Ulaanbaatar (2024) and the inaugural MUD: HUMUS performer residency (2022). She has exhibited locally at Nexus Arts (2022), FELTspace (2022) and The Little Machine (2023) and has been commissioned by fineprint magazine PAUSE~PLAY (2023) and Adelaide Film Festival Reflective Screen commission (2024). She is currently undertaking an artist residence at Nexus Arts Gallery for a solo show in April 2025.
