1953 Born in Australia Currently Lives and works in Australia & Philippines
Tony Twigg studied painting in Australia and holds a Master of Arts Degree in Visual Art from the College of Fine Art, Sydney. As his work developed he incorporated elements of film, video and performance into his installations. "Learning to Swim" presented at The Art Gallery of New South Wales and "A Shadow in our Tree" at the Queensland Art Gallery both developed historical narratives that he also told in his short films, notably "A Passion Play" that represented Australia at the Cannes Film Festival. When Tony began exhibiting in Manila in 1996 his work was abstracted. He continues living in both cities and in 2005 he began exhibiting with TAKSU. Since then his work has been seen in group and solo shows in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.
