Presented in partnership with ILA’s creative community program Lab Rats, Miles Dunne joins us for an artist talk discussing the theme of Digital in the Physical & Physical in the Digital.

Miles Dunne is a Kaurna based multi-disciplinary artist working in creative technology, design, and installation. His work embraces movement, light, colour and creative problem solving. Despite being an emerging artist, Miles has already collaborated extensively with Lab Rats, The Lab, Bait Fridge, Illuminate Adelaide, and most recently Boiler Room and an international residency through Creos in Montreal.

In this special artist talk as part of Lab Rats, gain insight into an overview of Miles’ evolving practice that combines digital tools with sculptural and spatial thinking. Highlighting the progression of Miles’ creative approach and the thought process behind this, the discussion will provide a platform for attendees to ask questions regarding previous projects and aspects of Miles’ practice.

Thanks to support from ILA and Lumo Energy, this event is free to attend but registration is required via this link.

More About The Artist:

Miles Dunne is an emerging multidisciplinary artist whose practice spans digital mediums, sculpture, installation, and live performance. In the initial years of his professional career, Dunne has delved into the intersection of digital programming and physical space, employing sculpture, light, and sound to explore themes shaped by his upbringing amidst rapid technological advancement. His work recontextualises technology to investigate augmentation and mutation within physical environments and objects.

Deeply fascinated, and troubled by critical issues such as war, displacement, environmental degradation, and the weaponization of now everyday technologies, whilst also drawing inspiration from science fiction, and imagined, and future technologies, Dunne crafts dystopian narratives, exploring themes of societal collapse and a recontextualisation of the concept of nature. His exploration of urban landscapes, industrial materials, and brutalist architectural forms, inform his approach to sculpture, engaging with themes of urban decay and industrialisation.
