Morphology
lesbionic + art
The noun 'art' is transparent, and the made-up adjective 'lesbionic' contains the recognizable stem 'lesbi-' (from 'lesbian') plus an adjectival '-ic' ending, so a learner familiar with 'lesbian' and basic derivational morphology could infer 'relating to lesbian identity'. However, 'lesbionic' is a nonstandard/nonce coinage (not in dictionaries) and its exact sense and formation are unpredictable for many B1 learners, so full comprehension without exposure is uncertain.
Etymology
Lesbionic art may come from joining lesbian and bionic, creating a picture of lesbian life made stronger or a little futuristic. So lesbionic art is used for 'art that shows and celebrates lesbian identity and culture'.
