Murray cast a generically African figure sculpture in bronze, violently disturbing the integrity of its surface and identity by appending little manic models of cartoon character Bart Simpson’s head. It stands over three metres high and is illustrated in the Standard Bank Young Artist 2002 catalogue, White Like Me, Brett Murray, on page 7 652 653 654
