The Democratic Set

This October and November, OzAsia Festival presents free exhibitions from the very best Asian and Asian Australian artists on display at Adelaide Festival Centre, Art Gallery of South Australia and Nexus Arts.

Be mesmerised as the Adelaide Festival Centre screens come alive with award winning Back to Back Theatre’s latest version of their short film project, THE DEMOCRATIC SET Seoul, South Korea. Tantalisingly strange yet oddly familiar, the film utilises a custom-made set – a neutral room framed by two opposing doors – giving rise to a swift succession of live performances and screen-based video portraits.

Punk Protest Propaganda: The Political Art of Fahmi Reza

A self-taught Malaysian graphic designer and activist fearlessly showcases two decades of visual disobedience, in Punk Protest Propaganda: The Political Art of Fahmi Reza, a companion piece to theatre performance A Notional History. Witness Fahmi Reza’s brilliance, inspiration, and unwavering dedication to change, and experience the power of art for political transformation.

At Art Gallery of South Australia, Misty Mountain, Shining Moon: Japanese landscape envisioned expresses the beauty of the Japanese landscape as represented by some of the world’s most celebrated artists.

Step into the imaginative world of Chris Yee, OzAsia Festival’s cover art commissioned artist, whose collection of illustrative and textiles-based works explores the modern Asian Australian identity and his relationship with place, land and culture in HOME-LAND.

Yellah Fellah

Curated for OzAsia Festival, Yellah Fellah explores the complex journey of self-expression by four distinctive contemporary Indigenous artists. Their unique narratives, rooted in their Aboriginal and Chinese heritage, and shaped by their upbringing in Australia, are moving, empowering and whimsical.

A collaboration between leading contemporary artist Truc Truong, OzAsia Festival’s Artist in Schools, and young people from Kilkenny Primary School and Roma Mitchell Secondary College, Have You Eaten? is an immersive art exhibition that invites you to consider your perfect picnic, favourite foods, and connections between culture and cuisine.
