About this artwork

This mosaic collage is a deeply personal tribute to Marilyn Monroe, moving beyond the "dumb blonde" stereotype to honor her as a gifted actress and a woman of profound intellect. Hand-assembled from thousands of magazine fragments, the monochrome portrait captures her raw, human gaze, contrasted against a vibrant explosion of floral imagery that represents the performative glamour she inhabited. It is a visual inquiry into the real woman who read… Joyce and fought for her artistic independence - a celebration of her hidden depth and the silent strength required to remain oneself under the relentless light of fame.

Credentials

Works on commission

Alina Pivnenko, born in Kyiv, is a self-taught collage artist who “paints” with meticulously hand-cut fragments from magazines, crafting her visions through thousands of hours in her studio. She creates large-scale images by layering tiny paper pieces, blending elements of nostalgia and iconic imagery through a slow, meditative process rooted in patience. Her work pulsates with quiet honesty, aiming to pierce the superficial and reveal the deep, complex emotions that lie beneath society’s labels and expectations, offering viewers an invitation to pause and discover authentic humanity.
