ABOUT THE ARTWORK
With this interpretation of Marilyn Monroe, I revisit one of the most iconic faces in modern culture through the lens of contemporary street art.
Rather than simply reproducing a familiar image, I focused on capturing the contrast between glamour and fragility — the duality that defines her enduring presence.
The composition emphasizes expression and light, while the vibrant background introduces movement and intensity. Layers of colors, drips and textures create a raw, almost explosive atmosphere that contrasts with the controlled precision of the stencil.
This tension between chaos and control reflects my artistic approach.
The portrait is executed using my signature double-layer stencil technique, carefully designed and entirely hand-cut before being applied with spray paint and acrylic.
Each background is created instinctively, ensuring that every piece remains unique, even when exploring similar subjects.
Marilyn Monroe remains a timeless figure in art and collecting, making this piece both visually striking and culturally significant.
MY WORK IN THE MARKET
My works are regularly sold through international auctions, reaching collectors across Europe and beyond.
This growing demand reinforces the value of early acquisitions, as my body of work continues to evolve and expand.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
I am a French stencil artist working at the intersection of precision and instinct.
My process combines digital design, hand-cut stencils and expressive painted backgrounds. I construct each piece through contrast — control in the subject, freedom in the background.
I have created murals across France and perform live painting at weddings and corporate events.
All my artworks are original pieces — no prints, no editions.
