Talking Pictures

Talking Pictures

We are delighted to collaborate with the Papercuts Comics Festival and The University of Adelaide's Department of Media to present Talking Pictures. Join us for this evening of visual storytelling. Each special guest will perform a live reading accompanied by onscreen projections of their own art.

Our amazing roster of local and interstate presenters is:

  • Adam Gillespie
  • Claudia Chinyere Akole (NSW)
  • Jana Hoffmann
  • Jessica Zeng
  • Lisa Vertudaches
  • Mitch Hearn
  • Nathan Grixti
  • Rachel Ang (VIC)

For more details about each of the presenters, click here! After reading about each of their credentials and experience, you are sure to want to see their interpretations of the Talking Pictures theme, which this year is simply ‘Food’. This diverse group of artists will bring you an evening of engaging, entertaining, and thought-provoking readings, with Adelaide-based comic creator and Papercuts Comics Festival co-director Owen Heitmann as emcee.

There will be a short intermission halfway through the event, and after the readings we invite you to join us and the presenters for complimentary drinks and nibbles in The Braggs’ foyer.

This session will feature sign interpretation in Auslan, provided by Deaf Can Do.
