Christopher Ulutupu, FAFSWAG, Jamie Berry, Keri-Mei Zagrobelna, Leala Faleseuga, Phil Dadson, Sorawit Songsataya, ROUTES cinema screening
Doc Club & Pub, Bangkok, Thailand
11 August 2023
For one night only, FAFSWAG, CIRCUIT and STORAGE co-present two special screening programmes and in-person conversations.
Diaspora Rendered is a compilation of short digital works and experimental films created by members of the FAFSWAG Arts Collective and is followed by a Q&A with artists Pati Tyrell and Tanu Gago; Returns is a collection of recent short films from Aotearoa exploring the eternal timelines of people, place and materials. It features work by Christopher Ulutupu, Jamie Berry, Keri-Mei Zagrobelna, Leala Faleseuga, Phil Dadson and Sorawit Songsataya, and concludes with a Q&A with CIRCUIT Director Mark Williams.
ROUTES runs in parallel with CIRCUIT's 2023 LEGACIES international tour, which is curated by May Adadol Ingawanij and features moving image artists connected with the Pacific Islands and with Southeast Asia whose practices embrace a multiplicity of inheritances and de-centered ways of world-faring. LEGACIES | ROUTES is an invitation to gather around a screen to encounter, entangle, and translate stories that are rooting, growing and living nearby.

Edith Amituanai, Martin Sagadin, Sriwhana Spong and Pati Tyrell, 'Legacies' international tour
ADM Gallery Singapore; Stelo, Portland, USA; LUX, London; Oberhausen Short Film Festival, Germany; Storage Art Space, Bangkok
03 April —
01 October 2023
Legacies, CIRCUIT's 2022 programme of artist cinema commissions of works by Aotearoa artists Edith Amituanai, Martin Sagadin, Sriwhana Spong and Pati Tyrell, will be shown at international galleries and festivals, from Singapore to Oberhausen. Curated by CIRCUIT’s 2022/23 curator-at-large Dr May Adadol Ingawanij (Thai/UK), Legacies began with a series of prompts Ingawanij sent to the artists about the potential meaning and resonance of the term.
“Legacies are that which we carry, sometimes with pride and sometimes with shame, as the basis of social bonding, whether as things a people embodies with pride or as an enduring pain, a burden, some kind of ghost. Legacies as: the pre-modern artistic, cultural, linguistic and religious heritages of the place and land that you were born into and raised in; through to the legacies of colonisation, and the spectres of nations and nationalisms; the legacies of the modern art/film histories; the narratives and ways of knowing that shaped you, and that bring an ambivalence and a desire to undo.” - May Adadol Ingawanij
The screening details are as follows:
- ADM Gallery, Singapore (Installation, 03 April - 05 May)
- Stelo, Portland, USA (Screening, 21 April)
- LUX, London (Screening/Talk by May Ingawanij, Sriwhana Spong and CIRCUIT Director Mark Williams, 26 April)

Dane Mitchell at Bangkok Art Biennale
BAB Box, One Bangkok, Thailand
12 October 2020 —
31 January 2021
Bangkok Art Biennale (BAB) is a biannual art festival set in various venues of the capital of Thailand. This year marks the second instalment of the Biennale. Visitors are able to immerse themselves in an array of artworks and performances from a diverse range of artists, both local and international, throughout the heart of Bangkok, in galleries, public spaces, and iconic landmarks. In addition, they are accompanied by conferences, workshops, guided visits, and publications to ensure a memorable and holistic experience. Three venues open on 12th October 2020, while the remaining venues open on 29th October. Dane Mitchell’s practice speculates on what is material and explores systems of knowledge or belief and people’s experiences of them. Dealing with the way things transform or transmit and the presence of material forces and the unseen, his work transmutes invisible phenomena into tangible forms as sculptural objects and images, connecting the sensual and the cognizant, and teasing out the potential for objects and ideas to appear and disappear.
