This striking screen print captures an iconic moment in cinematic glamour through Russell Young's distinctive technique. The artist employs hand-pulled acrylic and oil-based inks on linen, creating a luminous portrait that shimmers with applied diamond dust in misty rose. The combination of media produces a uniquely textured surface that shifts in different lighting conditions, while the soft pink hue lends an ethereal quality to the composition. Young's process merges Pop Art sensibilities with contemporary luxury, transforming a cultural icon into a meditative study of fame and beauty. Created in 2022, this work exemplifies Young's continued exploration of celebrity and myth-making in American culture. The substantial scale and meticulous hand-pulled technique ensure each impression possesses distinct characteristics, making this a unique variant within the edition. The diamond dust application adds both literal and metaphorical brilliance, elevating the print beyond traditional screen printing into the realm of precious object. This piece represents an important addition to any collection focused on contemporary Pop Art or celebrity iconography. Available for purchase — enquire for price and availability.
