A series of pencil on paper drawings made during a road trip across the United States in 2013. The Scroll Drawings consist of one large drawing measuring 152 x 338 cm made on various location across the USA and six smaller drawings measuring 100 x 40 cm done from the passenger seat.

The method used in creating the drawings derived from the need to create a system that could overcome the problem of doing large scale work without the flat surface which was actually needed. Therefore the particular procedure of drawing on a tube was invented. Scrolling and scanning the curved or partial surface working through the paper like a printer, one line at a time. Every line with it's own characteristic, but still corresponding and relating to the previous line. Eventually every bump in the road and every tiny crack in the floor affects the drawing and it becomes a topographical map of the journey itself.

Four drawings exhibited in 2011 at ARoS Aarhus Art Museum during the exhibition "Snapshots from Slumberland - 3 x Krull".

Two of the drawings measure 240 x 400 cm, they were done in my studio in Copenhagen. The two larger drawings measure 3,55 x 7,5 meters. The drawing "Marathon" was done as a 10 hour marathon performance at Kunsthal Charlottenborg during the all day event "Palace Party". The drawing "Slitscanner" was later acquired by ARoS for their private collection.

A series of pencil on paper drawings, made on three continents. The first three drawings were made in India in 2009. The next three in Colombia and the final three were drawn in my studio in Copenhagen 2010. All the drawings measure 66 X 150 cm.

A series of pencil on paper drawings made in Paris in 2008. All the drawings measure 115 x 150 cm.

A series of drawings/paintings from 2007 made on wooden plates.

A series of drawings/paintings from 2006 made on sheets of paper, which due to their size made the work take place on the floor.

Common to all the drawings in the "Floor" series, are the use of the compositional technique of drawing with two hands simultaneously. The ambidextrous approach achieves a sense of unity within the artwork, which is similar to the symmetrical composition found in rorschach tests and the mandala.

An audio/visual installation by Simon Steen-Andersen & Carl Krull from 2006. It consists of 2 visual loops and 3 audio loops of different durations. Each loop is a series of linear transitions between more or less figurative/concrete elements and states. The various durations of the 4 primary loops gives the installations grand loop an interval of exactly 52 years, 211 days, 4 hours, 15 minutes and 36 seconds.
