Lisa Watkins

I am an Auckland-born contemporary artist, currently completing the Wayfind Creative Cohort at the Depot Gallery in Tamaki Makaurau. My journey spans diverse careers, including as a world-travelled Chef and DJ, evolving into sculpture and mixed media over the past decade. I’m launching my own website next week, offering art and prints. My work is provocative, reflecting modern life through vibrant, parody-driven pieces. Known for resourcefulness, I use unconventional materials from my local community to craft detailed, concept-rich art. Recently, I won the People’s Choice Award at the 36th Waitakere Arts Competitions (2023).

Thank you to all our sponsors

On behalf of the Franklin Arts Festival we would like to extend our gratitude to all our sponsors.
Without their generous patronage the Art Show would not take place.

As an event we depend on their support and in return we hope you can support them too.
