Deeply Hanging Out – Day 2: Screen Program

Film Screening

24 May 2025

A soft, flesh-toned sculptural object resembling a human face, distorted as if folded over itself. The features - nose, lips, and part of a cheek - are visible but warped, creating a surreal and abstract effect against a plain white background.

Join us for the Screen Program – part of Day 2 of Deeply Hanging Out, a two-day celebration of experimental performance and collaborative live art unfolding across Adelaide’s public spaces and at ACE.

When

The Mercury's Iris Cinema

24 May 2025

10:00am to 7:00pm

Access

This curated screen program explores performance, performativity and live art through experimental film, documentation and the audiovisual archive.

Running on a loop throughout the day in The Mercury's Iris Cinema, the program complements the live performances, talks, readings and music happening at ACE. Drop in any time to experience a 90-minute mix of short films, video works and documentation that reflect on how live art is recorded and remembered.
