John Divola: I think of time as a verb

In this San Francisco Museum of Modern Art video, American artist John Divola reflects on how time and motion have influenced his artistic practice.

His series ‘As Far as I Could Get’ (1996–97) and ‘Dogs Chasing My Car in the Desert’ (1996–98) explore the relationship between the dynamic nature of the present and the fixed imprint of a photograph.

Divola works in photography, describing himself as exploring the landscape by looking for the edge between the abstract and the specific.
