Following the gift of a camera in 1976, Warhol began to document photographically every aspect of his life from the people he met to graffiti on the streets. In 1986 he developed some of these images into what became known as his stitched photographs. Created by sewing several identical images together, these works are indebted to his early screenprints in their use of repetition and grid formation. This work shows a dramatically lit photograph of Warhol wearing his instantly recognisable silver ‘fright wig’.
