Sam Durant – There’s a Certain Light in Darkness

Sam Durant - There's a Certain Light in Darkness - 2025

Sam Durant - There's a Certain Light in Darkness - 2025 Durant distills a message of hope that resonates deeply in times of struggle. By transposing these words into the glowing form of a lightbox, Durant creates an artwork that transforms a moment of crisis into a beacon of possibility.

The phrase itself speaks to the human ability to find hope even in the most difficult circumstances. It acknowledges the darkness that can surround us but affirms the quiet yet persistent presence of light—whether found within ourselves, others, or collective action. In this work, Durant encourages us to recognize the potential for transformation and clarity that often emerges when we face adversity head-on.

Through this edition, Durant once again brings forth a poignant, reflective message that speaks to the heart of our shared human experience. ‘There’s a certain light in the darkness’ is not just a statement of optimism, but a call to action, reminding us that light can be found in even the darkest corners of our world if we are willing to seek it out.
