Sebastian Magnani Once Upon A Time (Red) For Sale

Red is the color of appetite, of urgency, of things that refuse to be ignored. In Once Upon A Time (Red), Sebastian Magnani saturates his reimagining of Marilyn Monroe in a hue that feels at once celebratory and dangerous — a fitting palette for a figure who occupied both registers simultaneously. The photograph is part of a color-variant triptych, each iteration shifting the emotional register of the same image, asking what we see when the light changes.
