JENNA COLLINS

The Grand Alliance (2016)

Solo exhibition: text, installation, web, sculpture, photography

Exhibited, Quick Millions, London (2016)

‘The Grand Alliance’ is named after the consortium of American companies brought together in 1993 for the purpose of developing an HDTV standard, a process as personal, political and commercial, as it was technological or aesthetic. The project responds to the libidinal, comedic and delusional impulses present in the archival material, thinking about what we attach to the promise of ever better images and how we imagine the process by which they are arrived at.

Throughout April, Jenna Collins undertook a residency within the online and physical space of Quick Millions, producing an unreliable history of HDTV in the form of a screenplay and associated material.
