The space consists of a circle…

Responding to the invitation to create the 50 years anniversary exhibition of the art organisation SPACE, London, J&K used time travel to look 50 years back to 1968 when SPACE was founded, and 50 years forward to 2068. Artists that were involved with the organisation at its beginnings, as well as current and past SPACE studio artists, met with J&K in-person to partake in conversations and guided time-travel meditation sessions. Drawing on the idea that sites hold data, the meetings were situated within early SPACE studios – both active buildings and departed locations – where manifestations of the past and future were envisioned and recorded.

The artists carefully mined the time-travel experiences for objects, animals, colours, patterns, light and atmospheres, smells, sounds and architectural elements to create a 6-channel sound piece – composed in collaboration with Jacob Kirkegaard – and a multifaceted mixed media installation.
