Colin George Jeffrey (born 1962, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia) is an Australian-based artist. He is the originator of the multimedia art group, "Clockwork Dinosaur", an art collective that specializes in sculpting objects from waste or discarded material. Throughout the 1980s and 1990s he built techno-industrial assemblies, found-object sculptures and related mixed-media artworks. Today, Colin continues to sculpt with found objects, but also creates art forms incorporating various mechanical and electromechanical devices to produce automata, robots, and various other static and dynamic sculptures.

Colin Jeffrey studied at Deakin University and Moorabbin College. He first came to attention when he exhibited at the Plumb Gallery. He also exhibited in the 1999 "Found objet d’art" show at the Marble Gallery, is represented by Electric Hamster of Sydney, and has exhibited broadly.
