Bryn Jackson is a Filipino-American artist and curator based in Indianapolis. Jackson’s practice — grounded in ecological justice and institutional accountability — positions nature as a medium to confront complex histories and foster connectivity. As an interdisciplinary artist, he unites sculpture, photography, time-based media, arts administration, community engagement, and habitat design to produce works that address inequality in the arts, environmental degradation, and social injustice.

Bryn received a BFA from New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts and an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. His work is nationally recognized and has been supported by awards from the Arts Council of Indianapolis, Lilly Endowment Inc., Central Indiana Community Foundation, the Allen Whitehill Clowes Charitable Foundation, Arts Midwest, Big Car Collaborative, The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, and the National Endowment for the Arts. He is the Vice President of Community Relations and Programming at the Black Artists Archive in Detroit, an inaugural member of The Association of Art Museum Curators’ Professional Alliance for Curators of Color, and he currently serves on the Advisory Board and Collections Council for the Eiteljorg Museum and on the Board of Directors for Step-Up Inc., an organization focused on providing comprehensive care and resources for wellness with dignity and inclusivity.
