Wake - Echo and Edge Collective Exhibition

Opening Event: Saturday 5 July 4-6pm
Exhibition Runs: 4-27 July

Three artists, one environment: Whakaraupō / Lyttelton Harbour. Wake explores their shared response to this dramatic landscape - its light, weather, and ever-changing mood. Drawing on the many meanings of the word wake - as a trail, a ripple, a moment of attention - this exhibition reflects the individual perspectives of a collective deeply connected to place. Following in the footsteps of Margaret Stoddart, they respond in our own ways, across different mediums, to the same hills, storms, and shifting skies that continue to stir awe and inspiration.

The Echo and Edge Collective are Carmen Collie, Belinda Currie and Pippa Mills. Carmen Collie is a printmaker from Te Wharau/Charteris Bay, who uses pattern and layering to create depth in her compositions, using the vase as a canvas to capture moments in time. Belinda Currie of Kaioruru/Church Bay, teaches printmaking and mixed media, and depicts moments seen from her window using ink on paper. Pippa Mills, an early career jeweller also from Te Wharau, creates pieces inspired by the coastal landscapes of Te Pataka o Rakaihautū/Banks Peninsula, incorporating organic forms into her work with precious metals and natural elements.

Opening wines provided by Main Divide.
