Now in its 6th series Midnight Modern (2013-2023) explores the architecture of Modernism, Particularly in Palm Springs, California captured using ONLY the light of the Full Moon.

Intended to act as the stage for an unspoken narrative the images invite the viewer to script the story going on behind the walls of these architectural masterpieces.

The time of capture becomes increasingly ambiguous, with the intention for the viewer to lose their sense of whether the images might be captured during day or night, in 1958 or 2023. The questions become not where, but when and who.

Series VI features over $10m worth of cars, sourced from Palm Springs and LA owners and collectors and features iconic cars from Porsche, Mercedes, Jaguar, BMW. The iconic buggy built and driven by Steve McQueen in the Thomas Crown Affair is re-united with his Palm Springs home for the first time in over 50 years.
