LISA DUBOIS is a photographer, curator, and multidisciplinary artist. Raised in the New York metropolitan area, LISA's work is deeply rooted in an exploration of multiculturalism that documents the traditions, identities and visual culture of New York City's diverse, multiethnic communities. This focus is especially evident in her extensive photographic collections encompassing New York City's cultural parades, as well as the New Orleans' Zulu Club and Mardi Gras Indians. Her widely collected images of New Orleans subcultures reflect a profound respect for history, heritage and traditions.

A significant portion of LISA's parade photography is featured on the Social Documentary Network, a global platform where she also serves as a photo editor and a diversity advisor.

Her work has received recognition from leading publications like The Guardian and The New York Times.

As chief curator and creative advisor during the inauguration of Art On The Ave, an initiative dedicated to elevating local artist and revitalizing neighborhoods, bringing high-quality, contemporary art to both interior and outdoor spaces in New York City, LISA helped launch the city's first ever public art exhibition.
