A new exhibition of Jackson’s work, entitled "Kaori at Koru", is running until November 30 at Koru Gallery, opposite the Dunedin Railway Station.
A self-taught Japanese-New Zealander, Jackson’s depictions of native forest birds and flowers are modern in style, while adhering to traditional principles, as used by her grandparents.
Jackson started painting her vibrant "Romantic Dunedin" series in 2018.
