Didier Chamizo’s work depicts Marilyn Monroe in a caricature style, with the American flag visible in the background. Chamizo’s work has an instantly recognizable aesthetic. His style is figurative and draws from street art, graffiti, and tagging. His paintings critique everyday consumerism from various perspectives—social, political, philosophical, and aesthetic—synthesizing his daily experiences into evocative symbols.
