Daniel Jack Lyons
NOON Projects is pleased to present Days Change at Night, a solo exhibition of works by Daniel Jack Lyons — his first in Los Angeles.
Lyons makes photographs the way other artists make relationships: slowly, with attention, over time. Trained as an anthropologist, he approaches the medium as a form of sustained, reciprocal engagement — returning to the same people across months and years, sharing meals and conversation, allowing trust to accumulate before the camera is ever raised. The images that result bear the mark of this process. They are not taken. They are arrived at together.
Daniel Jack Lyons (b. 1981) is an American artist and anthropologist whose work focuses largely on marginalized youth, whether occupying spaces on the periphery of society or in the face of conflict. He has exhibited work internationally, most recently in Paris, Melbourne, New York, Milan, Amsterdam, Warsaw, London, and Mozambique. His work has appeared in numerous publications including the New York Times, i-D, the New Yorker, and Vogue Italia.
