Self Portrait of the Artist as a Dead Man, 1982 (test plate for the head)
Horologram, c.1984
Flying 3D, 1984
Margaret Benyon wrote in The Creative Holography Index
“He is most likely to be remembered by his ‘Self Portrait of the Artist as a Dead Man’ because it was prophetic of his early death. Holographic casts of Adrian’s naked body were assembled in a coffin and carried through the streets of London in a funeral cortege. The piece resembles the ancient Chinese mortuary figure of the Han dynasty, the Jade Princess’, with its bizarre suit of greenish flat plates.”
Since Adrian’s death, the whereabouts of this work have been unknown, so it was exciting to discover a test plate of the holographic recording of the cast of his face among the works in the archive.
Full installation with multiple reflection holograms and physical coffin.
