Jackson is known for her fantastical and provocative sculptures. Her work often features unexpected juxtapositions of materials and imagery, exploring themes of the grotesque, the natural world, and the human condition. Jackson's work is often interpreted as a commentary on the darker side of human nature. Her sculptures explore the themes of violence, death and decay, and they often challenge viewers to confront their own fears and taboos. However, Jackson's work is also deeply rooted in the beauty of the natural world. She finds inspiration in the textures and forms of plants and animals, and she often incorporates these elements into her sculptures. Jackson’s work exists between the playful and the diabolical, myth and lore, highbrow and low brow, beauty, and brutality.
