In Focus: Darren Almond, ‘Early Summer’ (2024) in the exhibition at White Cube Hong Kong

‘Early Summer’ (2024) is set within the animated movement of a willow tree‘s foliage. A faint zero symbol emerges from a gilded background, barely discernible against the modernist grid underpinning the painting‘s composition.

For Darren, zero is ‘the nothing that holds everything together’, a paradoxical threshold where existence and non-existence converge.

📍 View the painting in Darren Almond‘s exhibition ‘Night Before Day’ at White Cube Hong Kong until 30 August 2025.
