Justice vs Revenge: Cultural Icon Collage | Marilyn Monroe & Maya Angelou Art | 16x20"

A Reflection on the Fragile Line Between Fairness and Retaliation

"Justice vs Revenge" weaves together faces and fractured emotions, drawing from the complex legacies of cultural icons including Marilyn Monroe, Maya Angelou, The Joker, and the sad prince. The artwork inhabits the tense space between calm endurance and raw intensity, where vulnerability meets defiance across textured fields of blue, white, and dark purple.

Words punctuate the collage as vital threads connecting themes of strength, identity, and the central tension between justice and revenge. Fragments of expression and phrase merge to evoke deep contradictions of mercy and pain, unity and isolation.

Through its layered complexity, this charged yet still moment traces resilience threaded through cultural memory and personal struggle. It invites quiet contemplation on the enduring questions of fairness, belonging, and the inner battles we carry within.
