<p>Following the gift of a camera in 1976, Warhol began to photographically document 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. By repeating the same image Warhol makes the strange and unexpected things we encounter on a daily basis part of an abstract, bigger whole - no less strange perhaps but not an isolated occurrence.</p>
