Maaike Wycisk sees her work as a journey of discovery in which different images and materials merge into new creations. Inspired by Pop Art, she creates colorful artworks in which classic and digital come together.
Marilyn's Butterflies, like most of my works, is about the subjectivity and fragility of beauty. Marilyn Monroe was and still is one of the world's greatest sex symbols, but also proved vulnerable. The butterflies in this work underline this.
In addition, I tried to take away the photoshop perfection by adding "noise". In my opinion, noise and imperfections usually make photos much more interesting to look at than polished originals.

Maaike Wycisk was born in 1979 in Spijkenisse, near Rotterdam in the Netherlands. After some wanderings through the Netherlands and America she now lives in Switzerland.
She was always interested in coast and started experimenting with digital art. This is also what most of her work consists of: combinations of faces with different structures and materials.
In most of her works she chooses a female face as subject. Sometimes she uses famous faces, like Audrey Hepburn, Frida Kahlo and Marilyn Monroe. In other cases, the face is less well known, which accentuates the aura of mystery hidden behind the piece.
The effects in her art are reminiscent of peeling walls or posters, reminding us that beauty does not last forever. Her art is therefore an art in itself, focused on creating beauty. Aesthetics prevail over meaning, the artistic process prevails over message.
