Explores the gap between an individual's perception of their identity and the perceptions of others. This monograph uses video, painting and photography, and places stereotypes alongside the subject of those stereotypes, to examine issues of identity, racism and belonging. It presents a multi-faceted view of the individuals concerned.


Rachel Garfield uses video, painting and photography to make work, which explores the gap between an individual's perception of their identity and the perceptions of others. A common theme in all her works, in whatever medium, is the way in which they layer multiple experiences and viewpoints. The presence of the artist as both subject and interviewer is also a recurring feature. The work places stereotypes alongside the subject of those stereotypes, to examine issues of identity, racism and belonging. However, the viewer is offered no easy pointers as to how to respond. Garfield presents us with a complex, multi-faceted view of the individuals concerned, and their relationship to their communities and histories.
