Alison Jackson has
photographed the Queen of
England on the toilet,
George Bush and Tony
Blair chatting in the
sauna, Mick Jagger doing
gymnastics, and Monica
Lewinsky lighting Bill
Clinton's cigar. Or has
she? The likenesses are
uncanny, but, of
course, her subjects are
look-alikes. Her photos
demonstrate that, while
seeing is believing, the
truth is another story
entirely. In her work,
Jackson says, 'Likeness
becomes real and fantasy
touches on the
believable. The viewer is
suspended in disbelief. I
try to highlight the
psychological
relationship between what
we see and what we
imagine. This is bound up
in our need to look - our
voyeurism - and our need
to believe.' Indeed, by
showing 'celebrities'
ostensibly caught
unaware, Jackson's
pictures reveal what we
can imagine might go on
behind closed doors. Her
work has caused
controversy, not least
because it treads in a
very gray area between
parody and realism by
seeming to break down the
carefully controlled
private lives of public
figures.

from 3000 BC, to the
