Jasmin Wennersbusch (b. 1990, Germany) is a ceramic artist living and working in Tel Aviv-Yafo. She is a graduate of the Diploma Program at the Benyamini Center for Contemporary Ceramics, a recipient of the First Studio Scholarship for 2024-2025, and was selected for the 2026-2027 Artist Greenhouse residency at the Design Terminal, Bat Yam. In 2025, she presented her first solo exhibition, Transitional Matter, at B.Y5 Gallery in Tel Aviv. In 2026, her work was included in the Tel Aviv Biennale of Crafts & Design at the Eretz Israel Museum. Alongside her artistic practice, Jasmin holds degrees in international law from the Universities of Cambridge and Düsseldorf and recently submitted her PhD at Tel Aviv University.
Her work explores questions of belonging, identity, and transformation, shaped by her experience of moving between different cultural contexts. At the center of her practice is the tension between movement and stability, interior and exterior, which she explores through a combination of traditional and experimental ceramic techniques and layered surfaces.
Her visual language is based on geometric forms, color, and repetition, with movement and irregularity emerging within that order. Lines shift, soften, overlap, and follow the form of the vessel, and are sometimes carved directly into its surface. Her work moves between symmetry and organic form, and between functional objects and sculpture, exploring the relationship between surface, form, and function.
