Catherine Deneuve (Diamond Divas)
Vik Muniz's *Catherine Deneuve (Diamond Divas)* is a chromogenic print in which the iconic actress's portrait is meticulously constructed from sparkling diamonds and jewels, then photographed to create the final image. Muniz's signature approach transforms luxurious, high-value materials into a pixelated, painterly likeness that blurs the line between photography, sculpture, and illusion. The work plays with themes of beauty, celebrity, and material worth, reflecting on how glamour and value are perceived and constructed in contemporary culture.
