The Arts Centre Warburton
On Display 19 Jun 2025 - 31 Aug 2025
"Engage your senses and feel the art come to life under your hands, exploring nature's sensory wonders reclaiming its domain in a captivating colourful journey."
Step into a world of colour, texture, and transformation with this sensory-focused exhibition celebrating the power of touch. Beginning with a bold urban aesthetic, the space initially draws you into a realm of recycled textiles and reclaimed materials shaped into striking 3D sculptures and tactile wall art. The contrast of sharp lines and industrial textures sets the stage for an evolving journey, as urban life slowly gives way to the organic beauty of nature.
Over the course of the exhibition, nature begins to assert itself, reclaiming the environment week by week. The rigid lines of the urban world are gradually softened and overtaken by the playful, organic shapes of nature-inspired textiles. Each week, visitors are invited to witness this mesmerizing transformation firsthand, as artists breathe life into the space with vibrant, colourful creations. Scheduled installation times provide a rare behind-the-scenes glimpse into the artistic process, offering the chance to meet the creators and connect with their vision.
This exhibition is more than just a display of art—it’s an interactive, sensory adventure. The playful, tactile elements invite visitors to engage not just with their eyes, but also with their hands and imaginations. Vibrant creatures and captivating textures spring to life, showcasing the power of upcycling and celebrating the intersection of art, nature and touch.
