Faces Of Terror (1998) Photographic Self Portraits

To Thaumaturgically Transform The Typical and The Tedious To The Terrific and The Thrilling, Takes Time, and from Time To Time… Terror.

Selfies are commonplace today but back in the analogue 90s, there was an art to self portraiture. If you looked and posed just right, it could land you a top-notch modelling career (or if you were brown-skinned and scary looking, entry into A-Level Photography at Leeds College Of Art And Design).

You can’t say that Dalí Soul didn’t have these talents. He also perfected the art of opening 35mm film with a can opener, threading it into a reel and sticking that into a developing tank whilst enclosed in a pitch black room the size of a shower cubicle. Regrettably after misplacing the can opener, he never again used this amazing skill and that also put the kibosh on spaghetti hoops for lunch. 😭
