Jasmine Kate Wickens (b.1993) is an Interdisciplinary Artist and Grief Tender based in Edinburgh, Scotland, who is living as a white British, working-class, queer, disabled, neurodivergent woman. Rooted in the art of healing, her practice explores the complex, interwoven nature of being through deeply cathartic and considered processes, translating the unseen experience of inner transformation into an embodied visual language through mark-making, textiles, sculpture, installation, performance, and the written word. Jasmine has begun developing her first major body of work.

Jasmine graduated in 2015 with a 1st class BA Hons in Fashion Design from Middlesex University. Specialising in Womenswear, her final collection was showcased during Graduate Fashion week, with her Jewellery placing her as a finalist in the Accessories Prize 2015. Her collection was highlighted online by Wonderland, Glass Magazine, Vogue GB and Vogue IT.
In 2016, Jasmine began building the intimates brand The Under_Label, which operated between 2018 – 2020. Through this time, she held additional roles across the fashion industry within design, production, ethical sourcing and retail.
In 2020 Jasmine moved to Edinburgh, transitioning into Adult Social Care where she worked in her local community on a one-to-one basis with Autistic adults. In 2021 she met with significant personal health challenges, which led her to explore holistic healing and spirituality, studying herbalism, somatics, energetic healing, mysticism, divination, and deep ecology, which led her to holding space for people as an intuitive guide.
Throughout this time, Jasmine found her own catharsis through her artistic practice, connecting more deeply with herself and the world around her, engaging in local open mic nights, group crafts, exhibitions and activism. In 2025 Jasmine participated in several trainings to hold Grief Spaces, which reconnected her to her original desire to be a professional artist. Jasmine published her debut poetry collection Returningin July 2025, prior to enrolling at Leith School of Art in September 2025.
