Fullscreen


 

“Fullscreen” is currently in development for 2026. This preliminary sketch shows the current state of work – video compositions, sound composition, and text are still being refined.

 

“Fullscreen” (2026) examines how media have shaped our perception of space and time throughout history. An endless camera movement expands from the vanishing point, revealing layer by layer twelve stations of media history: from the Big Bang through cave painting, ancient theaters, medieval stained glass, Renaissance perspective, to digital interfaces. Screen sets are physically arranged and filmed, referencing how space was perceived and represented in each era. The picture-within-picture principle—screens showing screens showing screens—makes representation itself the subject, a “mise en abyme” of mediated perception.
Reflections from thinkers of each period have been woven into the text written by the artist—from Plato through Hildegard von Bingen to McLuhan and Luhmann. The spoken text is accompanied by a track created in collaboration with sound artist Simon Berz. Materials from each epoch are played: from stone and glass through metal to plastic and touchscreens.
With increasing density and tempo, the work arrives at the present before fading to black, leaving viewers referred back to their own position in this endless chain of representation.
