Tide, 2008. 567 digital wall clocks, Perspex, electro-mechanics, steel, vinyl, computerised electronic control system and components.
With immediate visual and aural impact, nearly 600 digital clocks register the relentless progress of time. Time is a regular preoccupation in Darren Almond’s work, which draws our attention to the fact that we are all bound together by its passage: as he sees it, time is a mark of reality – the present – as well as a portent of what is to come – the future.
