Wake brings together the Echo and Edge Collective – Carmen Collie, Belinda Currie, and Pippa Mills – three artists deeply connected by both their family ties and Whakaraupō Lyttelton Harbour home. The exhibition explores wake as a trace, a ripple effect, and a journey of the past and ahead – reflecting how the artists feel pulled along by each other and by the dramatic natural beauty of their shared environment. They also follow in the wake of Margaret Stoddart, drawing inspiration from the same land, light, and weather. Though working in paint, print, and jewellery, their art unites in themes of movement, memory, and the enduring presence of place.
