Super Scraps: A Critical Material Workshop w/ Keeley Haftner
Thursday, September 25, 2025, 6–9 pm
PAVED Arts Production Centre, 424 20th St. W. Saskatoon

As part of her senior production residency, artist Keeley Haftner invites participants to take part in a hands-on workshop centered on the collaborative creation of a new film made entirely from found and discarded footage. Haftner’s film scraps come from a recent durational performance at Stichting Ruimtevaart in the Netherlands, where cleaning and restoring the archive formed a site-specific installation that framed labour and care as artistic media.

The session begins with a short presentation on the materiality of film, including an introduction to artists who have explored this in their work, such as Simon Starling’s One Ton II and Zen for Film by Nam June Paik. Then participants will present their own film scraps—anything from failed exposures to outdated home movies—and work together to splice them into a single, collectively-produced film.

Tools & Materials
Please bring some film scraps (16mm, Super 8, 8mm, and 35mm) — e.g., home movies, student work, overexposures, leader film, cutting room floor material, etc. *If sourcing waste film is a barrier, please contact PAVED for support.

Skills Required
This is a beginner workshop, no skills are required.

Registration
Free for members, $30 for non-members. Purchase/renew your membership here. Sign up for the workshop by filling out this form: https://forms.gle/WCkE7WBdZ5X8Kg3i7
