Lights in the City (Marilyn Monroe series)

ARTWORK STORY // DESCRIPTION

Lights in the City places Hollywood glamour against the imagined pulse of an after-dark

metropolis.

Marilyn becomes part of a larger atmosphere of movement, neon and possibility. The portrait

suggests the excitement of being seen, along with the solitude that can hide inside a crowded

city.

The city after dark is full of contradictions: crowded yet lonely, dazzling yet mysterious. This

portrait imagines Marilyn within that atmosphere, where public glamour and private feeling

might exist side by side.

The title gives the work a cinematic setting without needing to tell a complete film story. It can

bring an urban sense of excitement to a contemporary apartment, entertainment area or bold

gallery wall.

Lights in the City suggests the restless glamour of an urban night: illuminated windows,

reflected signs and people moving through streets full of possibility. Within that imagined

setting, Marilyn’s image takes on a cinematic atmosphere.

Yet a city at night can feel private as well as spectacular. The portrait allows those moods to

coexist, offering both the excitement of being seen and the mystery of a person who remains

partly unknown. The work carries a vivid sense of after-dark storytelling.

A cinematic work for interiors with an urban edge.
