Description 
The Malcolm Morley exhibition at The Hayward Gallery showed a documentary with Morley painting outside he had an easel and stool and was busy painting a picture of a tiger, for a moment you believe he maybe in Africa painting from life but as the camera pans out you see he’s actually painting an advertisement of a tiger, displayed on the side of a coach, parked in a safari car park. On leaving the exhibition I picked up an exhibition poster with the intention of creating my own duplication of a duplication of a duplication that would in some way pay homage to the Morley exhibition and the tiger experience. By reproducing a section of this picture I question my relationship to it and it to me, in a way I have claimed the imaged for myself therefore a viewer who is not familiar with the original picture or its context will judge it within the context of my practice. Unintentionally the man in the picture has a slight resemblance to myself, so the painting could easily be mistaken as one of my own holiday snaps. More interesting those who are familiar with the original are likely to dismiss my work as a cheep imitation therefore the value of the art original instantly out values any imitation unless the imitation can in some way become as ‘popular’ as its original.
