About Jackie

Jackie Tu is an abstract fiber artist based in Richmond, Virginia, known for her improvisational approach, bold geometric forms, and vibrant use of color. With a background in Integrated Marketing Communications (B.A. and M.A.), she brings a design-focused sensibility to her quilts, blending structure with spontaneity. Her practice is rooted in process, built intuitively on the design wall and refined through rhythm, repetition, and play. Drawing inspiration from everyday materials and the tactile experience of making, Jackie creates compositions that are both modern and expressive. Through her quilts, she invites viewers to experience abstraction not only as visual form but as a dialogue between control and chance, order and spontaneity.
