MIQUASEO - Monroe VS Funny Faces

Miquaseo (France, contemporary) — Monroe VS Funny Faces — Numbered edition 100 × 100 cm — Plexiglass — Signed & numbered Artist: Miquaseo (France, contemporary artist) Title: Monroe VS Funny Faces Year of creation: 2025 Technique: High-definition print on plexiglass (PMMA) 5 mm Format: 100 x 100 cm (signed and numbered 11/25 - delivered with official certificate of authenticity) Provenance: SPACE Art Gallery — Saint-Paul de Vence (France), directly from the artist Condition: Gallery exhibition piece — perfect condition Official Instagram page of the artist: @miquaseo.art Work delivered ready to hang with an aluminum mounting system with a slight wall offset (~1 cm) for a premium contemporary look.. Work created using a contemporary mosaic technique composed of thousands of carefully assembled contemporary art images. High-definition print on plexiglass (PMMA) 5 mm, glossy finish with visual depth and gallery effect. Completely created without artificial intelligence: each composition is built, adjusted and balanced manually by the artist. Description of the work: An absolute icon of pop art, the Marilyn Monroe portrait reinterpreted by Andy Warhol in blue tones has left a lasting mark on the history of art and popular culture. With Monroe VS Funny Faces, this glamorous iconic image is reinterpreted in mosaic, composed exclusively of faces making goofy faces. Each fragment captures an exaggerated expression, funny or offbeat, revealing spontaneous humanity, far from the star’s smooth and idealized image. Assembled, these grimaces recompose Marilyn’s mythical face, creating a strong contrast between a manufactured icon and raw expressions. Printed on plexiglass, the work gains depth, brilliance and modernity, offering a decidedly contemporary and design-oriented presentation, meant to enhance modern interiors. From a distance: the cold, instantly recognizable glamour of a pop icon. Up close: an explosion of expressions, between humor, mockery and deconstruction of the image. Each piece is a signed and numbered artwork, produced in a limited edition, affirming its exclusive character and artistic reach.
