Pain

'Pain' is one of fourteen large scale photographic works taken from the exhibition 'Passion'. In this unusual work Rafferty has imprinted his face, skin to cloth, directly for his own version of 'Vero Icon' or 'True image'. 'Passion' is a modern interpretation of the Passion of Christ. Uniquely, all the works are self portraits using a variety of photographic techniques including making a 2 metre negative onto photographic cloth for his own interpretation of the 'Shroud'. Reviews of his 2010 exhibition can be found in the press links section on the CV page.
