Archie Moore 
Launch Event: 22 October
Exhibition: 11 October29 November

Celebrated artist Archie Moore's (Kamilaroi/Bigambul) ambitious new large-scale immersive installation work, Dwelling: Adelaide Issue, is the thirteenth AFF & Samstag Art and the Moving Image Commission and is the fifth iteration of his installation series Dwelling, in which Moore imaginatively recreates the mise-­en-scene of his childhood home. This ongoing investigation of memory and the effect of colonisation draws on visual, auditory, haptic and olfactory elements to create a powerful sense of verisimilitude.


AFF/Samstag 2024 Expand Moving Image Commission
Launch Event: 22 October
11 October29 November

The inaugural AFF/Samstag Expand Moving Image Commission is a series of experimental docu-fiction moving image works by artists Susan Norrie (NSW), Matthew Thorne (SA) and Emmaline Zanelli (SA).

In three chapters, they follow the narrative threads of mining in Australia, focusing on fly-in-fly-out workers, their families, environmental impacts and the complex relationship experienced by First Nation custodians of the land on which resource extraction takes place. Together they offer counter perspectives to frequently cliched assumptions, excavating this underrepresented but critical sector of contemporary Australia.

This collaborative project originates from the 2022 AFF Expand Lab, an initiative of Adelaide Film Festival with Principal Partner The Balnaves Foundation in partnership with Samstag Museum of Art, Art Gallery of SA, Illuminate Adelaide and Arts South South Australia.
