About

Based in Lyttelton, Lisa Patterson studied landscape architecture before completing a Graduate Diploma in Design, majoring in sculpture and print.

Her meticulously handcrafted objects incorporate elemental materials such as wood, bone, gold leaf and lead, investing simple motifs with a sense of mystery and revelation reminiscent of age-old allusions to religious icons and hidden worlds. This sense of secrecy and wonder is supported by the small scale of many of Lisa’s works and the artisanal nature of the shaping and carving involved in their production.
