Jessica Loughlin creates ethereal artworks in glass that explore her fascination with the beauty of emptiness and her extensive research into light and space. Beginning her artistic pursuit and exploration of the horizon line in her student years she has since dedicated her practice to the pursuit of capturing the transient qualities of light and the quiet sense of contemplation it provokes in the viewer.

Known for her understated aesthetic, Loughlin takes her artistic cues from the vast, flat landscapes and salt lakes of South Australia and is particularly drawn to the inherent quietness and stillness of the land. In her practice, Loughlin fuses opaque and translucent glass together in flat panels or geometric freestanding pieces that allude to shadow, reflection and refraction. Her work is characterised by a strict reductive sensibility and restricted use of colour with a gentle palette of soft muted hues.

Born in Melbourne, Loughlin started her studio practice in 1998 and quickly established herself as a distinguished member of the upcoming generation of glass artists in the early 2000s. She has exhibited extensively both nationally and internationally over the course of her career. Widely celebrated for her thoughtful and instinctual approach to kiln-formed glass, together with her innovative technical skills with the medium, Loughlin is one of Australia's leading contemporary glass artists.
