Pure Evil (nee Charles Uzzell-Edwards, b. 1968, South Wales) “The Last Marilyn” (Dirty Silver edition, 2016) Limited edition screen print in five colors on 330 gsm Fedrigoni fine art paper; hand signed and numbered (67/100) by the artist in the lower margin. The unframed work of art measures 70 x 85cm (27.5 x 33.5 inches) and will ship in a tube. Pure Evil’s work depicts celebrities and popular culture references using few colors and bold silhouettes. The Last Marilyn likewise captures the starlet with silver hair, wearing bright red lipstick, and with an elongated teardrop beneath her right eye (a signature emblem on the artist’s portraits) set against a black backdrop.
According to the artist, “Having Pure Evil as a nickname is a bit of a joke, but it’s a license to have fun with dark imagery. It reflects the darkness that’s in the world right now. You can’t just ignore it and do a nice picture of a unicorn. Unless it’s a unicorn with a rocket launcher on its head.” Drip Art
