Lisa 
Waup 
Collection

Introducing the latest artist to join the Autex Acoustics x Willie Weston collection, Lisa Waup. Lisa is a mixed-cultural First Nations artist and curator from Narrm (Melbourne). With a deep connection to the symbolic power of materials, her work reflects her personal experiences, family history, country, and broader historical narratives. Oneness represents the many aspects of self, centred around identity and belonging, and translates to a state of being unified or whole, comprising two or more parts.
