Darren Almond

Clock

A precise and austere work by Darren Almond, *Clock* reflects the artist's longstanding preoccupation with the nature of time, measurement, and human experience. Almond examines how mechanical systems of timekeeping impose structure upon the fluid and often elusive passage of time. The work invites contemplation of the tension between objective, quantifiable time and the deeply subjective way in which it is felt and lived.
