Conran on Jeffries
"If you will forgive my
indulgence, This work is most definitely NOT photojournalism. Nor is it
intended as portraiture. It's religious or spiritual iconography. It's powerful
stuff. Jeffries gave these people something more than personal dignity. He gave
them a light in their eyes that depicts transcendence, a glimmer of light at
the gates of Eden, so to speak. The clarity in their eyes is awesome to behold,
as if God is somewhere in there. He has made these people into more than poor
old broken homeless people lazily waiting for a handout from some urbane and
thoughtful corporate agent. He infused them with light, not darkness. Even the
blind guy has light pouring from his sightless eyes. I think Jeffries intended
his art to honor these people, not pity them. He honors those people by giving
their likenesses a greater meaning. He gives them a religious spiritual
significance. He imbues them with the iconic soul of humanity. I think that's
what he was trying to do, at least to some degree thereof."
