Scott Kennedy

My Name is Scott Kennedy and I’m an artist and event planner based in Queenstown, New Zealand. I was born in Canada, but have made my home in Aotearoa since 2002. I split my time between my passions in the world of creative storytelling.

Whether that is through writing - I’ve written 12 books, had hundreds of articles published throughout the world and have worked as the editor of a monthly entertainment magazine. Or as a photographer where my images have appeared next to my words in numerous publications. Or as a filmmaker where my short films, documentaries, music videos, promotional films and other projects have been met with awards and acclaim.

As a musician my main focus is my band EchoKnot - an experimental, instrumental band that released our first full length album in 2019.

I’m an installation and light artist as well as a sculptor. My work has been featured as part of The Queenstown Art Society, LUMA Queenstown, ReNew Art and others.

I am currently the Community Arts Coordinator for the Queenstown Art Society.
