‘The Subtle Knife’ by Daniel Crooks is screened at Times Square, New York, as a part of the Asia Society Triennial
A multichannel video work The Subtle Knife by Buxton Contemporary Collection artist Daniel Crooks is showing across multiple screens in Times Square, New York, throughout January as a part of the Asia Society Triennial ‘We Do Not Dream Alone’ program realised in partnership with Times Square Arts. The Subtle Knife takes us on a contemplative journey through time and space. Moving slowly down a never-ending train track, the scenery disappears into a series of constantly receding frames, forming a surreal landscape of alternate realms and infinitely expanding possibilities.
For a short interview with the artist visit the Asia Society Triennial website. Images of the work in situ are also available online.
