‘Shadow of doubt’ references Caravaggio's The Incredulity of Saint Thomas which shows the biblical story that gave rise to the term 'Doubting Thomas'. It depicts surgical scars, representing the fragility of the body. Shrouded in a sheet, the image speaks of night terrors. Printed on textured leatherette, representing skin.
