Adonis and the House, After, 2025, Digital video and audio recorded in The Sims 4 with field-recorded sound, 15 min 10 sec
Adonis and the House, After is a timelapse shot in the popular social simulation game The Sims 4, with short vignettes woven through to tell a non-linear story of an apartment in Limassol.
I recently realised that ever since playing the first The Sims game (Maxis, 2000), in every iteration one of the first tasks I give myself is to re-create my parents’ current home, the house I lived and grew up in since I was 10 years old. I decided to film this process as a way of catharsis.
