Fruit Tree Sun (2026)



“Fruit Tree Sun”, 2026, Super 8 film, surround sound, 15mins loop, tea-dyed muslin. Exhibited at Nexus Arts Gallery, Adelaide (Tarntanya).


Fruit Tree Sun continues Allison Chhorn’s interdisciplinary practice of filmmaking, gardening and observing the natural cycles of life around the family home and garden.

The garden is the studio—a place for growing plants and intergenerational family members to be nurtured by daily rituals. Captured over changing seasons on Super 8 film, the personal archive is projected onto leftover tea-dyed muslin reminiscent of dried plants. These ghost-like hanging pieces become fragments of memories.

Tactile and atmospheric, the installation reveals multiple timelines of different stages of life overlapping visually, sonically and temporally. Preservation turns into inevitable decay and circles back again to new growth.
