Jazmin Novak is a New Mexico-based sculpture artist. Her focus lies in creating work influenced by the desert environment. Incorporating bronze, aluminum, iron, and glass, her work reflects the importance and beauty the landscape holds. Novak believes connection to one another is imperative to our well-being and uses animal figures as narrative devices to communicate stories of connection, identity, and shared humanity. Novak is a Diné artist born and raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Sculpture allows her to tell stories from an Indigenous perspective. Each work is informed by the process, allowing the piece and the narrative to grow together.

Novak received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Arts with a minor in Performing Arts from the Institute of American Indian Arts in 2021. She has exhibited her work in New Mexico in various museums and galleries, including the IAIA Museum of Contemporary Native Arts, SITE Santa Fe, 516 Arts, and internationally at the Marist LdM Biennale 2019 Exhibition during the Venice Biennale. Novak is a recipient of the 2023 Dreamstarter® Creatives. After working in the themed entertainment industry for Meow Wolf and Walt Disney Imagineering on various projects, Novak is establishing her studio in Santa Fe, NM.
