DARWIN FESTIVAL: The Wake Up | Natalie Vidgen & Angie Soares

How do we grieve for what is lost and awaken to what remains?

The Wake Up by Natalie Vidgen and Angie Soares is a poetic response to the quiet erasures of the natural world, vanishing habitats, disappearing species and the delicate balance unraveling around us. Through woven sculptures, delicate textiles, paper-based works and devotional offerings, the exhibition invites stillness, reflection and collective care.

Imagery, light, shadow and layered textures create an atmosphere of quiet contemplation, evoking nature’s sacredness. Intricate works and organic forms, marked by time and touch, become acts of witnessing and devotion, recognising our deep, interwoven relationship with the natural world.

At once memorial and invocation, The Wake Up honours what has been lost and treasures what remains.
