This year we present a series of artist film screenings from the University of Salford Art Collection, each with an international focus, at the New Adelphi Exhibition Gallery from March to June 2024.

Nicola Dale & Florence Lam (I Become a Question For You, 2022) and Antony Barkworth Knight (Homage to the Rain, 2019) both work with collaborators across the globe to create meaningful shared experiences, across digital and physical divides. 

Parham Ghalamdar (Birds or Borders, 2020) and Shezad Dawood (Leviathan Cycle, Episode 1, Ben, 2017) each consider migration/immigration and the relationship to our welfare – both presented alongside the Hybrid Futures project at Salford Museum & Art Gallery.

University alumnus Elliott Flanagan (A Piece of Something Bigger, 2018) considers how we create, and sustain, our sense of identity through travel, friendships and connections; and a new film from Open Eye Gallery (Home from Home, 2023/24) engages curators, photographers, poets and citizens from the UK and Liverpool to discuss the meaning of ‘home’.
