The Cloned Receptionist
Oil & Oil Pastel on Paper.
Size: 50 W x 70 H cm
I started talking to a man at the reception. I asked him about ageing, he said he didn’t know as he was a clone, but his original would. He was number 5. I looked at the other 4 moustached bald men. They looked as if they were cast for a film, with different actors wearing costumes and makeup to almost look the same.

This paper has the exact same make-up as the original is painted on - 100% α-cellulose. Acid- and lignin-free. There is a visible structure to the paper which gives a textured look and feel close to the original.
It is certified ISO 9706. Which means it conforms to museum quality for the highest age resistance.
I scan the original (not photograph) so it is as accurate as can be. Including all the oily lumps and strokes of the originals. And then If it’s needed I colour-correct on a colour-accurate studio monitor with the original in front of me.
