It is time to let your imaginations run wild and take the opportunity to imagine what your favourite dinosaurs were like at the Tweed Regional Museum’s dinosaur exhibition at 2 Queensland Road, Murwillumbah.
‘The fossil record has provided invaluable clues about the structure and biology of dinosaurs, but much of their appearance – like colours, patterns, and textures – remains a mystery, leaving space for artistic interpretation,’ said Molly Green, Tweed Regional Museum Director.
This is where the Tweed Regional Museum’s latest exhibition, How to Draw a Dinosaur, creates the opportunity for the interaction of science and artistic imagination – where young and old are encouraged to create their own interpretations of what these ancient and dramatic dinosaurs might have looked like.
‘It is an innovative fusion of science and art bringing the captivating world of dinosaurs to life,’ said Ms Green.
‘Through interactive exhibits, visitors of all ages are encouraged to let their imaginations run wild, envisioning and creating their own interpretations of these majestic creatures.’
The exhibition also features extraordinary works from internationally acclaimed artists, including projection artist Craig Walsh, graphic street artist Phoebe Paradise, and inflatable sculptor Matthew Aberline.
Visitors will also be treated to stunning illustrations by world-renowned paleoartists such as Dr Lida Xing and Andy Frazer, plus works from local sculptor Christine Mellor and painter Michael Stiegler.
As part of the exhibition, Walsh has also produced an outdoor projection installation, which can be viewed in the Tweed River from the Murwillumbah Bridge every evening from late January.
