Through bold abstraction and expressive mark making, Twomey has created an immersive visual experience that feels both joyful and alive.
Studio 8 Currumbin presents Tropicana, a vibrant new solo exhibition by celebrated Australian botanical artist Bernadette Twomey.
Known for her bold use of colour and expressive, layered compositions, Twomey’s work sits between contemporary botanical and abstract painting.
Created from her Brisbane studio, her paintings celebrate nature in full bloom, capturing the energy, texture and joy of lush environments.
Tropicana is inspired by tropical flora and immersive landscapes, offering viewers a sensory experience that feels uplifting, playful and escapist.
Each work invites a sense of connection to the natural world through colour, mark making and form.
This exhibition marks an exciting presentation of Twomey’s work at Studio 8 Currumbin and is a must see for lovers of contemporary Australian Botanical art.
