William Josephs Radford Strangely Familiar Fine Art Prints

Strangely Familiar is a bold exploration of the idealized family portrait, challenging the polished façade often presented in traditional family photography. William Josephs Radford distorts familiar faces using tights as a visual barrier, subverting the notion of togetherness and revealing the underlying complexities of family dynamics.

By creating a sense of distance and discomfort, this series disrupts the conventional “happy family” aesthetic, encouraging viewers to question the authenticity of staged family imagery. Through this work, Radford highlights the performative nature of family portraits—where appearances often take precedence over reality—concealing the imperfections that make relationships both challenging and deeply meaningful.

Printed on Hahnemühle Photo Rag, these museum-quality fine art prints deliver exceptional detail and texture. Each piece is part of a limited edition of 10, hand-signed and numbered by the artist, with a certificate of authenticity included.

Available Sizes & Prices:

• 12x18 inches – £240

Thought-provoking and visually striking, Strangely Familiar invites viewers to reconsider the narratives we construct about family, memory, and identity.
