In 2021 I heard that Chester cathedral wanted to borrow St Albans Cathedral's 9-foot print of A Last Supper for their exhibition Global Images of Christ. I also offered to loan them my original painting Kiss of Betrayal, a 6-foot icon painting depicting the moment Judas betrays Jesus with a kiss in cinematic close up, which is still installed there on a long-term loan for the next 5 years.
I created Blue Christ so the exhibition included an image of mine which had never been previously seen. I used my treasured stock of chemically identical Yves Klein Blue paint, made for me by a paint genius after years of wheedling. The model is the same as that of my earlier Pink Christ and Kiss of Betrayal, fashion model and musician Jamel Gordon Lynch.
