Lot Essay

Darren Almond (b. 1971) works across multiple mediums including photography and film to explore the transience of life and the constantly evolving nature of narrative in human experience. In A Real Time Piece, 1995, Almond placed a live video link feed into his empty studio, with nothing but a wall clock documenting each passing minute. In the Fullmoon series, Almond used long exposure times, up to 15 minutes, to document various exotic locations around the world during a full moon, creating vivid and beautiful images that transcend the documentary.
