About Dean Jackson

Dean Jackson is a multidisciplinary artist who creates interactive sculpture, wall sculpture, and furniture. Each art form reflects his fascination with three-dimensional design but draws inspiration from a different source. Whatever the medium, he approaches every project as an artistic journey that ends with a finely crafted, desirable object.

His career spans more than forty years. Jackson began working as an independent artist and furniture maker in the early 1980s after earning an Honours BA in Fine Arts. Soon after, he traveled widely through Europe and Asia, gaining experiences that continue to influence his work.

Over the years, his art and furniture have been shipped internationally and featured in many design and media publications. The Walls of the World series began in 1986, inspired by his love of travel and historic architecture. Later, a visit to a classic car show in 2001 sparked a new direction. The AeroPod, AstroPod, and DecoPod interactive sculptures emerged from that moment — each combining streamlined automotive forms with a hidden functional element.

Today, Dean lives and works in Toronto, Canada. He continues to push the boundaries of artistic expression. His goal remains constant: to create original, engaging, and beautifully made objects that reflect excellence and imagination.
