Since the 1990s Sharon Lockhart (1964) has mainly produced photographs in series. Her images record the quiet, often overlooked moments in everyday life. Lockhart’s working method is an elaboration of strategies developed by conceptual artists and filmmakers in the 1960s and 1970s. In these decades artists used serial production and a non-aesthetic approach to photography in order to knock art off its perch. Using the history of art and film as a reference, Lockhart studies and documents people and places in the here and now.
