Jhana Millers presents Molecular Motel, an exhibition of recent works by Denys Watkins, featuring ceramics made in collaboration with Bronwynne Cornish.
Unhinged days these. Associations closed, minds stultified. Information? Barriers up. Thank god for this archaic practice. Shining a light in the landscape and small moments.










Denys Watkins is a contemporary artist. Born in 1945, he lives in Tāmaki Makaurau, Auckland. Watkins is a highly respected contemporary artist with a career spanning five decades. In the early stage of his career, Denys was widely regarded as one of Aotearoa’s finest printmakers, a media since superseded by painting and watercolour. He was a long serving teacher of 31 years at Elam School of Fine Arts in Tāmaki Makaurau.

Jhana Millers Art Gallery was established in 2018 in Te Whanganui-a-Tara, Wellington to showcase compelling and innovative contemporary art and promote emerging local talents. Housed in the listed Mibar Building, fitted with large windows and a concrete ceiling, the gallery provides space for solo and curated group exhibitions.
