Artworks classification

Original Artwork

Original Artwork refers to any work that is considered authentic and not a copy or imitation of the original works of an artist. Original artwork can be any type of painting, sculpture, performance, or other media. There are many types of original media. Mixed media includes oil, acrylic, and watercolor paintings. For workshop paintings that bear evidence of master craftsmanship, this attribution must be further qualified. While they may be less valuable for different reasons, reproductions and copies have had a tremendous impact on our experience. They reach a greater audience than originals and act as a tonic against commodification. Original Artwork could also refer to the first work, which is always preceding all others. It could also refer to a prototype or a model from which other works can be made. Each work bears great similarities to the original.

Artist inspired by all the arts and philanthropy.

I have taken up pastel since March 2014 in a plastic research on faces and looks; questioning notoriety and what we do with it in a life.
Several activist projects have been completed, notably the "Heforshe Men" 26 portraits to support the campaign on gender equality launched in 2014 by the UN; or even "this is what a feminist looks like" which brings together 28 portraits of famous men who have declared themselves feminists.
Around the portrait, another project is underway: "Les belles wrinkles" which pays homage to old age .
A film buff from my early youth, film actors and actresses are my main subject in terms of portraits, as well as my favorite directors. Highlighting the raw material support from which creation springs, such as mass-colored bare paper or even raw or gilded wood, is part of my artistic approach.

The dry pastel technique has multiple possibilities and is non-polluting, it has become my favorite technique.

Other projects on the theme of the Château de Versailles, notably on the sculptures weathered by time which adorn the gardens or even film shooting scenes inspire me in this place imbued with profound beauty where I have worked as a documentalist within the Ministry of Culture for 22 years.
