"'The idea behind using so many screens-especially these old 4:3 monitors-was that nothing is synchronized. Each video runs on its own duration, so every visitor ends up seeing a different version of the work.'"
"'In the gallery, that created a very fragmented experience-you had to move through it, almost like navigating a space rather than watching something.'"
"'At Studio 1111, it shifts a bit. The screens are arranged more linearly, from left to right, so it feels more like a film unfolding.'"
"'With the soundtrack by Ed Davenport, there's a stronger sense of shared time. So it becomes less about fragmentation and more about a collective immersion-without losing that open structure.'"
'Chronos' is a spatial, multi-channel video installation by Simon Mullan, presented during Gallery Weekend Berlin at Studio 1111. The installation features a flow of images, sounds, and memories influenced by techno culture, creating a collective experience. The use of old MiniDV aesthetics and a soundscape by Ed Davenport enhances its immersive quality. Unlike its previous exhibition in a gallery, the installation at Studio 1111 offers a more linear arrangement of screens, fostering a sense of shared time and collective immersion while maintaining an open structure.
