WHAT ARTISTS ARE SAYING ABOUT STUDIO 8

  • Abstract painting of a lush green forest with trees, leaves, and a small river or stream running through it, painted with bold brushstrokes and vibrant colors.

    A delight to work with.

    This is such a beautiful space to exhibit. The works looked great on the walls and Kellie was a delight to work with.

    — Kym Mullen, Artist

  • An abstract painting of a woman with yellow hair, a white dress with blue polka dots and a yellow belt, and a large green plant to her left. The background is beige with some pink and brown areas.

    I would definitely exhibit again.

    "Kellie has created a wonderful opportunity for artists at Studio 8 Currumbin. She couldn't have been more accommodating in helping us set up our exhibition. It is a lovely space and Kellie's enthusiasm for the arts is infectious. I would definitely exhibit again."

    — Kate Owen, Artist

  • Highly recommend Studio 8.

    The space is light, bright and just the right size, with an excellent street-facing window.

    Highly recommend Studio 8 for your next Gold Coast exhibition.

    — Karen Backus, Artist

  • Abstract painting with colorful layers of pink, orange, yellow, green, and blue, with bubble-like patterns and web-like structures throughout.

    The gallery looked incredible.

    "It was such a privilege to have had this wonderful opportunity to exhibit my artworks in this fine gallery along with a host of other artists. It was a wonderful experience, one I will always remember and appreciate, the gallery looked incredible. I hope you will have me again."

    — Robyn Mannes, Artist

Day Dreams
Day Dreams

22 to 26 October · Studio 8 Currumbin

Studio 8 is delighted to present Day Dreams, the first solo exhibition from Kim Stark.

Kim’s abstract landscapes drift somewhere between memory and imagination: soft horizons, glowing pockets of colour and loose, joyful marks that suggest places you might have visited in a daydream. Each work is built slowly through layers of impulsive mark-making and brushstrokes, letting colour lead the way.

The result is a collection that feels light, playful and quietly transportive. Come and spend some time with it.
