Perfidy

Andrew Rafferty

Dimensions
up to 152.4cm x 152.4cm

Perfidy is one of fourteen large scale photographic works taken from the exhibition 'Passion'. The original work comprised 25 18" square images arranged together. For the 2010 exhibition in the crypt of St Pancras Church the image was 6 feet square and assembled as a table. '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'. In another unusual work Rafferty has imprinted his face, skin to cloth, directly for his own version of 'Vero Icon' or 'True image'. Reviews of his 2010 exhibition can be found in the press links section on the CV page.
