We’re thrilled to announce Oliver Stewart as the judge for our 2025 Annual Art Competition!
Oliver Stewart is a multimedia artist based in Kirikiriroa, Hamilton. His creative practice encompasses video, music, digital and painted art and has a focus on neo expressionism within his visual medium. He has exhibited in a multitude of local and nationwide galleries after getting started in the local scene back in 2010. As a previous attendee of the Arts for Health annual competition of almost 10 years running, Oliver is looking forward to contributing to the event from a new perspective. Each year the event draws a spectacular range of works and is constantly expanding. Getting to see the work without having to fight his way through the crowd and being able to meet with the winners will be an enormous privilege, one that he does not take lightly. We’re excited to have Oliver on board and can’t wait to see this year’s entries through his expert eyes!
