Omicron Drawings
A series of 100 pencil on paper drawings from 2015 measuring 30 x 24 cm.
It took me about a year to finish the 100 “Omicron” drawings. They were made when I had just become a father, so a large portion of the the drawings were made during my daughters nap-times. Astronomers use the name Omicron to pinpoint a stars location in a constellation, and I chose the title because it makes me thinks of space. I remember having this screensaver called SETI many years ago, it showed data from space being analyzed and depicted as graphs and chart on the computer screen. The way the drawings are build reminds me of these charts, and it makes me wonder what actually goes on when they emerge on the paper in front of me as if by themselves. The images that come out this technique also resemble the iconic album cover for Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division, it's an image of stacked radio waves from a distant pulsar, but was actually first thought to be a signal from some kind of extraterrestrial entity. On a more personal note, an alternate name for the star Omicron Ceti in the constellation Cetus is Mira, which is my daughters name.- 022_Omicron_XXII_30x24cm_2015_Carl_Krull

Olmec Drawings
A series of pencil on paper drawings from 2014 measuring 172 x 118 cm. -
Scroll Drawings
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. -
Graphite Drawings
A series of pencil on paper drawings from 2012 measuring 100 x 141 cm. -
Four Large Drawings
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. -

Floor Drawings
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.
