Host Partner: Margaret River Makers, Margaret River

Jacky was born in Malaysia of Chinese heritage and currently resides in Yawuru Country, Broome, WA. Deeply rooted in her own bi – cultural experience, her focus is fundamentally about identity and awareness through cultural activities, memories, and relation ships. Jacky’s awareness is amplified through her diasporic lens and identity as a person of colour in foreign borders as she continues to question her notion of ‘home’ and ‘belonging’. Her recent accolades include the prestigious national prize 46 th Frema ntle Art Centre Print Award (2023), The John Stringer Prize (2022); finalists in multiple national art awards including National Works on Paper, VIC (2022) and 67th Blake Prize, NSW (2022).
