Dr Penny Burnett’s paintings focus on our relationship with space and nature. Formally trained in the atelier method at the National Art School in Sydney, Burnett is versed in the painterly gestural language of rendering space. Her doctoral project examined traditional representations of gardens in order to create an alternative way of perceiving cultivated space. Recently her practice has focused on colour mapping to question how colour can shift both the mood and perception of pictorial space. Burnett’s work has been exhibited across the east coast of Australia, Malaysia and Korea. She has selected for a number of Australian prizes and residencies including the Calleen Art Award, Ravenswood Art Prize, Muswellbrook Art Prize (2020 people’s choice) and Bay of Fires (2018 winner). Residencies include Poimena Art Gallery- Launceston Grammar school, Cradle Mountain Wilderness Gallery and the inaugural Artspace IAa, Jeju Island, South Korea cultural exchange courtesy of Arts TAS, the Dep of Foreign Affairs and Trade, Jeju Foundation for Arts and Culture.
