Author: Mulligan, Rory
In his debut monograph, American photographer Rory Mulligan presents a body of black-and-white photographs that span more than a decade of the artist’s work. Spurred on by the death of a childhood friend and unrequited first love, Mulligan turned to photography and toward home to unpack his personal history, relationships with other men and his own place in the canon of documentary photography. Crystalline yet strange images of suburbia are punctuated by charged portraits and self-portraits, resulting in a poetic, rhythmic rupture of traditional documentary narrative. Mulligan’s process of creating this work was deliberately paced, often stepping away from it for months or even years at a time to focus on other projects. He considers 'Freddie' to be something beyond simply personal; it is a revelation of the artist and his navigation through loss and the search for intimacy and self-affirmation.
ISBN 9781069670304. Magic Hour Press. hb. 168 pages. 16.5 x 23.5 cm.
