<p>Morley’s career has encompassed a number of radically different styles, ranging from abstraction to a heightened ‘super-realism’. He began his collaboration with Tyler in 1981, and produced a series of prints depicting farm animals. <i>Goat</i>, like the others in this series, combines a recognisable figure with the vigorous expressionist brushstrokes associated with abstraction.</p><p><em>Gallery label, July 2008</em></p>
