The Mill in Conversation

In June 2021, The Mill welcomed Hussain Alismail to undertake a residency as part of our Sponsored Studio program. The outcome of this residency was a new exhibition, In search of a good laugh, presented in our Showcase gallery in November-December 2021. The Mill’s Sponsored Studio is a new initiative supported by Drs Geoff and Sorayya Martin, and an anonymous philanthropist beginning in 2021.  This podcast episode was recorded live at an artist talk in November 2021. 

This episode was recorded at the Stitch and Resist 'Crafting Change' event hosted on Zoom during a snap lockdown in Adelaide in July 2021. The event was a public program for the exhibition hosted at The Mill in July/August, and is the culmination of a year long project of the same name, in which the Centre of Democracy engaged with community organisations and groups, as well as with the general public, to discuss, and create works addressing a range of contemporary issues. Speakers include Nikki Sullivan- Exhibition Curator and manager of Centre of Democracy, Nathan Schroeder, Assistant Curator at The David Roche Foundation, and exhibiting artists Madeline Seys, Monica o'Wheel and Sue Morley. 

Join Curator in Residence Tanya Voges for a conversation with artists exhibiting in the 'Postcards from Motherhood' exhibition. 

During their residency, The Mill’s Visual Arts Curator Adele Sliuzas recorded a podcast with members of the Bait Fridge to discuss their practice and how they coped with a residency during the height of COVID-19.

The Mill’s Visual Arts Curator Adele Sliuzas sat down with Carly Takari Dodd to talk about her practice for The Mill’s podcast. In this chat Carly talks us through the genesis of 'Shackled Excellence', and the way the works have evolved through her residency.
