The familiar pose, straight collar and controlled expression stay constant, while the surrounding surfaces and facial colour change from one print to another. The subject offers a distinctive way to explore the tension between political authority and the culture of reproduced images.

Based on a highly circulated official image of Mao Zedong, the series turns an emblem of political authority into the language of mass-produced celebrity portraiture. The sitter’s familiar expression remains steady while unexpected colours interrupt the official image’s authority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposition and colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Across the sequence, the same official portrait takes on a different visual energy in every colourway.

It offers a way to consider the tension between political authority and the culture of reproduced images.
