A COLLECTION OF 2,218 COLOUR TRANSPARENCIES WITH IMAGES OF MODELS TAKEN BY COLLINS. 1978 – 1989.

A collection of 2,218 different 5 x 5cm colour transparencies taken and processed by Collins from 1978 to 1988. The images are all of various paid and unpaid models posing for the artist in various states of dress. Many are images of the women showing off their panties which appears to a major fetish of the artist. Other images are the women naked. Some images were used by Collins in later works.

All are in original plastic slide holders. All are dusty and the plastic holders are often grubby but the slides themselves are almost all in VG to VG+ condition. A comprehensive collection of the artist’s photographic practice and his source material for many paintings and some photographic works found in his archive at the time of his death.
