Hilary Lloyd (b. 1964, Halifax, England) lives and works in London. With interests in architecture, fashion, textiles and colour, Lloyd’s work centres on film and video whilst also invoking sculpture, painting and installation. Engaging directly with their sites of production or of exhibition making, the films resist conventional notions of ‘duration’, instead representing filmic tableaux’s to be encountered. Some are almost devoid of movement or incident, while others employ a rapidly panning or shifting point of view. The work involves a tension between an ambiguous, seemingly casual subject matter and a precise arrangement of images and installation equipment.
