Nearly nine months after being blown up by a landmine in Afghanistan, Duley made this powerful black-andwhite self-portrait. "When I was still in intensive care, I had an idea in my head of a photo I wanted to take a selfportrait... I called the idea 'my broken statue'." As well as echoing classical Greek and Roman sculpture, it speaks powerfully about what Duley has gone through and where he is going as a person and a photographer.
