Music for a video project by Gülsün Karamustafa.
Presented at the Historisches Museum, Kestner Museum in Hannover, Germany, 2000.

‘Personal Time Quartet’ (2000) presents four channels of ever-repeating motion and was shot in Karamustafa’s own apartment. A video screen placed in four different rooms shows a young girl engaged in various domestic activities. One screen shows her painting and repainting her nails, another one shows her folding laundry, a third one shows her jumping a rope and yet another presents the girl opening and closing cupboards. Though it was intended as a portrait of the artist’s personal biography as it intersects with the history of her country, the work is recontextualised in this exhibition as representative of our own isolation, the repeating motions echo the rhythm of our sheltered life indoors.

Music composed by Peter Machajdík
